Thomas Heatherwick 'Vessel' Hudson Yards, New York

At the very heart of the Hudson Yards development on New York's West Side is a giant honeycomb-like sculpture towering above the plaza below. Designed by British designer Thomas Heatherwick, 'Vessel' is a brand new icon for the city that never sleeps. Visitors are invited to climb the structure's 154 Escher-like staircases to the top for a unique take and views of the city skyline and surrounding area.
