We’re less than a month away from the 25th anniversary of September 11. As we look back at the World Trade Center, we are reminded of how architecture is a part of the city’s identity and memory.

On August 25, join us for a special lecture with photographer Stain Ries and historian Anthony W. Robins. They’ll examine the history of the WTC before and after 2001 and share personal stories through photographs.

Together, we’ll revisit the towers’ design, construction and legacy as we honor the lives lost on that day and the resilient of NYC.

Happy Earth Day! 🌱🌎
Today we’re remembering our 2024 exhibition Tall Timber, which explored how mass timber can help us create a more sustainable built environment. By sequestering carbon, timber avoids the environmental costs of steel and concrete. Some engineers believe that, soon, timer buildings will rise to 80 stories. How tall will you go for the planet?

Since its time at the Skyscraper Museum, the exhibition has traveled to the University of Arkansas and a venue in downtown Detroit in partnership with Michigan State University and Bedrock. Tall Timber lives forever on our website, where you can virtually explore the exhibition in full!
