Designed by renowned architect Louis I. Kahn shortly before his death in 1974, this four-acre park at the southern tip of Roosevelt Island finally opened to the public in October 2012. Gina Pollara, former executive director of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms Park, will lead a tour of this monumental new public space, sharing the inside story of how this exceptional project was realized four decades after it was originally conceived.
