The Arts Build NY website has a fascinating collection of renderings and drawings of ongoing or planned expansions or development by 55 cultural institutions. Gowanus Lounge was especially taken by the drawings of two planned cultural institutions near the Brooklyn Academy of Music–the Visual and Performing Arts Library, which is pictured above, and the Theatre for a New Audience, which is below. The website is connected to a show that opened on Wednesday called City of Culture organized by the Alliance for the Arts and the American Institute of Architects.

The Visual and Performing Arts Library probably will never be built because the Brooklyn Public Library is not capable of raising the $80 million that would be necessary. In contrast,Theater for a New Audience has been very successful at fundraising.
