679 Third Avenue (at the corner of 43rd Street) was recently donated to chashama by the Durst Organization.
Situated a block from Grand Central Station with 17 windows along two sides, this space is perfect for large canvas window displays and installations requiring only raw space and a lot of light.
(at the corner of 43rd Street / Subway: 4,5,6,7 & shuttle to 42nd Street/Grand Central Station. Bus: M104, M42 to Third Ave., M101, M102, M103 to 43rd St.)
