711 Third Avenue Lobby Renovation
In 1956 the Abstract Expressionist painter Hans Hofmann created a wall-size mosaic on the elevator core of the lobby of this significant example of modernist architecture designed by William Lescaze. This work of public art is the centerpiece of the rehabilitation of the building’s public entrances and facilities by Archimuse.
