The New Museum in New York has a 2007 building by SANAA and Gensler and an expansion by OMA, led by Shohei Shigematsu and Rem Koolhaas. The museum is the client. The 2007 building opened on December 1, 2007. The text says expansion construction began in 2022 but also says it was originally due for completion that year. The infobox gives no construction dates.
The article describes the 2007 design as flexible, with white boxes on the Bowery. It has seven stories and 58,700 square feet (5,450 square meters). The expansion has a glass-and-metal facade and an atrium.
The expansion reopened on March 21, 2026 after delays. The text says Massimiliano Gioni becomes director on August 1, 2026, though the infobox still lists Lisa Phillips. It is a contemporary art museum with galleries, event space and the NEW INC incubator. The article gives no hours.
