The High Line -The Plinth

Opened in June 2019, the Plinth is the first space on the High Line—and one of the only sites in New York City—dedicated solely to a rotating series of new, monumental, contemporary art commissions. The Plinth is located on the Spur, on the High Line at 30th Street and 10th Avenue, where a large open space offers sweeping city views and a thriving gathering space for people. Artworks selected for the Plinth become part of the cityscape itself, remaining on display for 18 months. The Plinth was inaugurated with Brick House by Simone Leigh (2019), followed by Untitled (Drone) by Sam Durant (2021), Pamela Rosnekranz’s Old Tree (2023), and Iván Argote’s Dinosaur (2024).
