David Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center
Tod Williams Billie Tsien · Lincoln Square · 2022
Construction has wrapped up at the renovated home of the New York Philharmonic in Lincoln Center’s David Geffen Hall (formerly Avery Fisher Hall). Officially opened on October 08, the renovation of the Max Abramovitz structure came in on budget and two years ahead of schedule.
Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects are responsible for the design of the public spaces, including the ground floor public hall, a Sidewalk Studio public space at the northeast corner, and second floor atrium.

Design of the theater renovation, renamed the Wu Tsai Theater, was led by Diamond Schmitt Architects. This is the third theater to be built inside the 1962 structure and features a design similar to a proposal by Abramovitz. The stage has moved forward by 25 feet and flexible seating has filled in behind. Seating has been reduced by 500 to a total of 2,200 seats and an increase in the rake of the main seating level to 7.5 degrees allows for a more intimate experience.
