What if there was a world of film below Lincoln Center?
A state-of-the-art theater for film screenings and discussion found its home in an underused parking garage space. Part of Lincoln Center’s 16-acre redevelopment project, the venue dramatically expanded the Film Society’s capacity for programming and education.

In a nod to the space’s previous incarnation, a 16-foot-wide folding garage door opens the amphitheater to the lobby to make it feel welcoming.
“It’s intended to be Lincoln Center’s public living room for watching movies.”
