A new sculpture to be installed this spring in the Flatiron neighborhood will “form a visual bridge between New York City and Dublin, Ireland. The sculpture known as “The Portal” will offer the public “a real-time, visual live stream that connects the two iconic cities; and will be installed on the Flatiron South Public Plaza at the intersection of Broadway, Fifth Avenue, and 23rd Street, next to the Flatiron Building, while in Dublin, it will be installed facing the capital’s main street. The sculpture was delivered by the Dublin City Council as part of its designation as the European Capital of Smart Tourism 2024 and will be presented by the Flatiron NoMad Partnership in collaboration with the New York City Department of Transportation’s Art Program (NYC DOT Art) and the Simons Foundation.
