After three years of construction, and an even longer period of controversy, the Museum of Arts and Design is throwing open the doors of its new Manhattan home. Designed by Brad Cloepfil, AIA, the 10-story, 54,000-square-foot facility at Two Columbus Circle is the result of a massive renovation of a 1964 building by Edward Durell Stone, FAIA.
