Reporting in the New York Observer, Matt Chaban outlines The Durst Organization’s plans to revitalize Pier 40, a site that Dattner Architects has been studying for years. The concept design, developed by Dattner Architects, calls for more efficient operations and added commercial and retail space. By consolidating parking on one level with car stackers, spaces could be increased and over 500,000 square feet given to commercial, retail, and recreational uses.
