Equitable Center

About this Tour Stop...

One of the most significant office towers on 6th Ave is the Equitable Center designed by Edward Larrabee Barnes. The Equitable Center commissioned several works of art for its public spaces, including a sixty-eight by thirty-two-foot mural from the Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein, sculpture from the British artist Barry Flanagan, large-scale “wall drawings” from the Minimalist sculptor Sol LeWitt, and specially designed furnishings and decorations from the furniture designer and “sculptor” Scott Burton.
