点评:After a visit to the 9/11 Museum & Tour this was an excellent spot to have lunch in the food court. Brookfield Place is a high end shopping destination with a large open atrium and palm trees, full of sunlight with plenty of cafe type tables & chairs to relax. More importantly, it’s connected to the Oculus which is a major subway stop so you can get anywhere in the New York City from here.
An added bonus when we visited was the “Can”struction exhibit. Brookfield Place explains it best on their website:
“ Canstruction is … the beloved annual design competition challenges teams of architects, engineers, and contractors to build sculptures made entirely out of unopened cans of food. The large-scale sculptures are displayed in an exhibition open to the public and later donated to City Harvest to help feed those in need.”

我们参观时还意外地看到了“罐头建筑”(Canstruction)展览。布鲁克菲尔德广场在其网站上对此做了最好的解释:
“罐头建筑”是一项备受喜爱的年度设计竞赛,它挑战建筑师、工程师和承包商团队,让他们完全用未开封的食品罐头建造雕塑。这些大型雕塑作品会在面向公众开放的展览中展出,之后捐赠给“城市丰收”(City Harvest)慈善机构,帮助那些需要帮助的人。”
