Lincoln Center in New York City is about to have its 50th anniversary. There are going to be performances by Ittzhak Perlaman and Wynton Marsalis, to celebrate the future more than the past. The event will take place in the newly renovated Aluce Tully Hall which was reopened this past February. The design of the building is great and is catching on to the public. There have been people hanging out on the new bleachers which are located opposite Alice Tully's entrance on the corner of Broadway and West 65th street. There are other modifications coming to Lincoln Center in the future. A black-box theater designed by the architect Hugh Hardy is going to be on the roof of the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, but this still needs the city approval. One new feature is that the whole place now has free WiFi connection to the internet. A new bridge will span 65th street soon. These updates to Lincoln center will give the overall design a sleek look and make the area a much more desirable place to visit.
