Hills Preview Weekend Wrap Up!
Sep 30, 2015 11:50 am
The last weekend of the season is always bitter sweet. We love seeing so many visitors on the Island as we roll into autumn, but we’re sad the Island will be a bit quieter for the next few months. This year, we were lucky enough to end public access with a big exclamation point at our #previewtheview weekend. Over 2000 of you took advantage of the opportunity to come see the Hills in progress. People were amazed at the 360 degree view they got from the top of Outlook Hill, how close they felt to the Statue of Liberty, and the Oz-like view of Lower Manhattan. On Sunday, visitors even got to see Marine One up close® as President Obama flew overhead on his way to the UN.
We’ll miss you over the next few months, but we’re already looking forward to welcoming you back on May 28, 2016. As always, it’s sure to be a season full of amazing events and exhibitions, and we’ll have lots more Hills progress to show you!
