The Pavilion at Brookfield Place Compilation

Craig Copeland, the Design Team Leader from Pelli Clarke Pelli talks about the reconfiguration of the World Financial Center into Brookfield Place.  He shares the challenge of returning to the building 25 years later and how the architects tried to maintain the vision while responding to the new program.    

Craig Copeland discusses the Glass Pavilion, a room that would receive the Western End of the Concourse to connect to the World Financial Center.  The design was to dissolve the facade as much as possible and to try and create an open and inviting canopy of basket columns to 'turn the Winter Garden back to lower Manhattan'.
