Hudson Yards' new art installation,
The Vessel has been attracting hordes of visitors to climb the staircases lining its honeycomb-like structure. Some say it looks like a giant schwarma, or comically large pinecone. It's definitely got an eye-catching, distinctive design.
The Vessel has found itself at the center of a content ownership controversy:
"Whether you think it is an out-of-place eyesore or the next great public art installation, there's no doubt that it was purposefully designed to lure in millions of visitors a year and inspire an infinite number of selfies and Instagram photos. But here's something to keep in mind if you do decide to go get that picture: simply by visiting the Vessel, you are granting the Vessel the rights to use all of your Vessel content."

Head on over to Hudson Yards to see this new attraction, but don't be surprised if you find a picture of you and your family pop up on The Vessel NYCs Instagram page!
Cheers,
