2 Columbus Circle, Contemporary art museum at Columbus Circle, Manhattan, United States

The Museum of Arts and Design occupies a nine-story building with terracotta panels and glass walls at the intersection of Broadway and Eighth Avenue.

Edward Durell Stone designed the structure in 1964 as the Gallery of Modern Art before its transformation into the Museum of Arts and Design in 2008.

The institution displays objects documenting innovation in craft, art, and design through exhibitions that connect materials with contemporary creative methods.

The museum contains four floors of galleries, a 150-seat auditorium, three artist studios, and exhibition spaces across 54,000 square feet of space.

The building features deep grooves between terracotta panels and large glass sections, replacing its original marble facade with small corner windows.
