An Indoor Public Atrium With Living Walls Near Columbus Circle

Step off Broadway near Columbus Circle and give the street a little time without you. David Rubenstein Atrium, Lincoln Center, is a public sanctuary at 1887 Broadway, part of the Lincoln Center ecosystem. Inside, lush green living walls bring the garden into the city break. Ample seating includes well spaced tables and chairs, an invitation to put the walking on hold.

WiFi lets you stay connected during a pause in the airy room. The intimate setting also hosts performances that are free to attend, with impromptu appearances adding another reason to linger. A stop here can be a breather or a small encounter with the performing arts.

The atrium opens Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 10 PM and Saturday and Sunday from 9 AM to 10 PM. Choose a time around your Broadway plans and leave a little space for sitting still.
