A Trip to New York City/The New Whitney

The new Whitney Museum, designed by Renzo Piano, was completed in May 2015. 

This is a portrait of the founder of the museum, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, painted in 1916 by Robert Henri.

On a drizzly day I stood on the upper terrace looking out to the west side highway and the Hudson River.

This view looks toward the Statue of Liberty, obscured by the mist.

And from the same terrace looking south and east.

This is a view of the High Line Park which begins at the Whitney Museum.
