Rendering of Farshid Moussavi's Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland.
Farshid Moussavi's new home for the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland (MOCA) is nearing completion in the city's emerging Uptown district. The 34,000-square-foot, four-story building anchors a key intersection in an area that's part of University Circle, a cultural hub with institutions such as the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, and Case Western Reserve University. Moussavi, who was a founding partner of Foreign Office Architects (FOA) with Alejandro Zaera-Polo until the firm (and the partners' marriage) dissolved in 2011, has designed the museum as an angled and faceted block wrapped in black, mirrored stainless steel. The building will be completed in August and the museum will open in early October.
