The metamorphosis from private collection to public museum is an extraordinary transition. For the Guggenheim, this occurred in 1937, when Solomon R. Guggenheim established a foundation empowered to operate a museum that would publicly exhibit and preserve his holdings of nonobjective art. Today the Guggenheim is a museum in multiple locations with access to shared collections, common constituencies, and joint programming. Nevertheless, it is the permanent collection that constitutes the very core of the institution, no matter how far-reaching the foundation’s activities may be.New York Post

Portion of Pier 1 on the Brooklyn Waterfront - the First of Six Piers to be Developed as Part of the Park - Opens with New Promenade, Lawns, a Playground and the "Granite Prospect"
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Governor David A. Paterson and local officials today opened the first portion of Pier 1 at Brooklyn Bridge Park. Pier 1 includes the first of the park's waterfront promenades, lawns, a playground and the "Granite Prospect," a set of steps built from granite stones where park goers will be able to sit and enjoy the scenery. Earlier this month, the Mayor and Governor announced an agreement that gives the City the primary responsibility of developing the entire 85-acre park. Once completed, it will stretch along the Brooklyn waterfront from Atlantic Avenue to Jay Street, north of the Manhattan Bridge. The Mayor was joined at the announcement at Pier 1 by State Senator Daniel L. Squadron, Assembly Member Joan L. Millman, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, Council Member Steven Levin, Public Advocate Bill DeBlasio, Deputy Mayor for Economic Development Robert C. Lieber, Parks & Recreation Commissioner Adrian Benepe, Empire State Development (ESD) Chairman and CEO designate Dennis Mullen and Executive Director Peter Davidson, Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corporation President Regina Myer, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Executive Director Christopher O. Ward, and Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy Chairman David Kramer.
