History

Planning …
David Geffen Hall, home of the New York
Philharmonic in Lincoln Center

The David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center, home of


the New York City Ballet
A consortium of civic leaders and others
led by, and under the initiative of, John D.
Rockefeller III built Lincoln Center as part
of the "Lincoln Square Renewal Project"
during Robert Moses' program of urban
renewal in the 1950s and 1960s.[2]
Respected architects were contracted to
design the major buildings on the site, and
over the next thirty years the previously
diverse working class area around Lincoln
Center was replaced with a
conglomeration of high culture to please
the tastes of the consortium.[3]
Rockefeller was appointed as the Lincoln
Center's inaugural president in 1956, and
once he resigned, became its chairman in
1961.[4] He is credited with raising more
than half of the $184.5 million in private
funds needed to build the complex,
including drawing from his own funds; the
Rockefeller Brothers Fund also contributed
to the project.[2] Numerous architects were
hired to build different parts of the center
(see § Architects). The center's three
buildings, David Geffen Hall (formerly
Avery Fisher Hall, originally named
Philharmonic Hall), David H. Koch Theater
(formerly the New York State Theater) and
the Metropolitan Opera House were
opened in 1962, 1964 and 1966,
respectively.[4]

It is unclear whether the center was


named as a tribute to U.S. President
Abraham Lincoln or for its location in the
Lincoln Square Neighborhood. The name
was bestowed on the area in 1906 by the
New York City Board of Aldermen, but
records give no reason for choosing that
name.[5] There has long been speculation
that the name came from a local
landowner, because the square was
previously named Lincoln Square.
However, property records from the New
York Municipal Archives from that time
have no record of a Lincoln surname; they
only list the names Johannes van Bruch,
Thomas Hall, Stephan de Lancey, James
de Lancey, James de Lancey, Jr. and John
Somerindyck.[6] One speculation is that
references to President Lincoln were
omitted from the records because the
mayor in 1906 was George B. McClellan
Jr., son of General George B. McClellan,
who was general-in-chief of the Union
Army early in the American Civil War and a
bitter rival of Lincoln's.[7]

Construction milestones …

In 1955, the first city institution to commit


to be part of the Lincoln Square Renewal
Project, an effort to revitalize the city's
west side with a new performing arts
complex that would become the Lincoln
Center for the Performing Arts, was the
Fordham Law School of Fordham
University.[24] In 1961, Fordham Law
School was the first building to open as
part of the renewal project, and in 1968,
Fordham College at Lincoln Center
welcomed its first students.[24]

The development of the condominium at 3


Lincoln Center,[25] completed in 1991,
designed by Lee Jablin of Harman Jablin
Architects, made possible the expansion
of The Juilliard School and the School of
American Ballet.[25][26][27]

The center's cultural institutions also have


since made use of facilities located away
from the main campus. In 2004, the center
expanded through the addition of Jazz at
Lincoln Center's newly built facilities, the
Frederick P. Rose Hall, at the new Time
Warner Center, located a few blocks to the
south.[13] In March 2006, the center
launched construction on a major
redevelopment plan that modernized,
renovated, and opened up its campus.
Redevelopment was completed in 2012
with the completion of the President's
Bridge over West 65th Street.[16]

Renovations …

When first announced in 1999, Lincoln


Center's campuswide redevelopment was
to cost $1.5 billion over 10 years and
radically transform the campus.[28] The
center management held an architectural
competition, won by the British architect
Norman Foster in 2005, but did not
approve a full scale redesign until 2012, in
part because of the need to raise $300
million in construction costs and the New
York Philharmonic's fear that it might lose
audiences and revenue while it was
displaced.[29][30] Among the architects that
have been involved were Frank Gehry;
Cooper, Robertson & Partners; Skidmore,
Owings & Merrill; Beyer Blinder Belle; Fox &
Fowle; Olin Partnership; and Diller &
Scofidio.[31]

In March 2006, the center launched the


65th Street Project  – part of a major
redevelopment plan continuing through
the fall of 2012  – to create a new
pedestrian promenade designed to
improve accessibility and the aesthetics of
that area of the campus. Additionally, Alice
Tully Hall was modernized and reopened
to critical and popular acclaim in 2009 and
the Film Society of Lincoln Center
expanded with the new Elinor Bunin
Munroe Film Center. Topped by a sloping
lawn roof, the film center is part of a new
pavilion that also houses a destination
restaurant named Lincoln, as well as
offices. Subsequent projects were added
which addressed improvements to the
main plazas and Columbus Avenue Grand
Stairs. Under the direction of the Lincoln
Center Development Project, Diller Scofidio
+ Renfro in association with FXFOWLE
Architects and Beyer Blinder Belle
Architects provided the design services.
Additionally, Turner Construction Company
and RCDolner, LLC[32] were the
construction managers for the
projects.[33][34] Another component to
redevelopment was the addition of the
David Rubenstein Atrium designed by Tod
Williams Billie Tsien Architects, a visitors'
center and a gateway to the center that
offers free performances, day-of-discount
tickets, food, and free Wi-Fi.

Lincoln Center for the Performing


Arts

Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts


(LCPA) is one of the twelve resident
organizations, and serves three primary
roles: presenter of artistic programming,
national leader in arts and education and
community relations, and manager of the
center's campus. As the world's largest
presenter of performing arts offering
some 5,000 programs, initiatives and
events annually, its programs include
American Songbook, Great Performers,
Lincoln Center Festival, Lincoln Center Out
of Doors, Midsummer Night Swing, the
Mostly Mozart Festival, Target Free
Thursdays, the White Light Festival and the
Emmy Award–winning Live from Lincoln
Center.[46][47]

In July 2006, the LCPA announced it would


join with publishing company John Wiley &
Sons to publish at least 15 books on
performing arts, and would draw on the
Lincoln Center Institute's educational
background and archives.[48]

Cultural Innovation Fund


Lincoln Center Cultural Innovation Fund is
the first of its kind as a grant program that
seeks to make the arts accessible to all
people, focusing on those who live in
some of New York City's poorest
neighborhoods.[49] Partnering with the
Rockefeller Foundation, the new pilot grant
program offers one-time grants to non-
profit organizations to provide cultural
activities in these communities in the
diverse neighborhoods of Central Brooklyn
and the South Bronx.[50] Each of the 12
grantees will receive support and financial
backing for their project based on
organizational budget size. These are one-
year long projects, and grant amounts
range from $50,000-$100,000.[50] The over-
all goal of the program is to support non-
profit organizations in creating cultural
innovative strategies that cultivate
participation in the arts as well as increase
the range and availability of cultural
activities to underserved communities.[51]

In popular culture
Lincoln Center is featured in multiple
works of art and media. Examples include:

Films:

A Thousand Clowns (1965), Shown while


under construction
No Way to Treat a Lady (1968), in which
Kate Palmer (Lee Remick) works there
as a tour guide
The Producers (1968), in which the
theatrical producers Max Bialystock
(Zero Mostel) and Leo Bloom (Gene
Wilder) meet at the Revson Fountain to
discuss their scheme to defraud their
investors; the climax of the scene is
provided by the eruption of the plaza's
fountain while Bloom dances around
Ghostbusters (1984), Peter meets Dana
by the fountain after her rehearsal with a
guest conductor
Pitch Perfect (2012), in which the final
competition takes place at Lincoln
Center
John Wick: Chapter 2 (2017), in which a
shootout takes place in the plaza before
moving into the Subway
