On the site of Eyebeam's new 90,000 square foot building to be completed in 2005, the existing taxi garages were renovated to provide a 7500 square foot multipurpose hall, artist in residence studios, classrooms and meeting spaces. As this is intended as a temporary space, the architectural interventions are minimal.
