South Cove Compilation

 South Cove was the result of the Innovative model set up as part of the Master Plan for Battery Park City and includes Stan Ekstut, its architect and master planner as a member of its team with Mary Miss (artist) and Susan Childs (artist). The project covers 3 acres with the goal of making the Hudson River accessible to the public. In fact it was one of the first green spots created along the River as it was transformed from a working waterfront to a more residential/ recreational one.

The collaboration that created what is today considered one of the country's most significant public artworks begun as "kind of a shotgun marriage" says Mary Miss.
