About Whitney Museum

The Whitney Museum, designed by Renzo Piano and opened in 2015, sits at 99 Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District of New York City. This modern arts hub houses a variety of spaces for exhibitions, talks, and performances, including the Susan and John Hess Family Theater with seating for up to 180 guests. Whether you’re planning a visit to view the Whitney Biennial or booking a private event, we’ve got you covered with seating guidance, parking options, transit details, and nearby hotel and restaurant recommendations to help you plan a smooth trip to this iconic NYC venue.

The Whitney does not offer on-site parking, but nearby ICON garages and public transit options make accessibility easy.
