16-35-70

16-35-70 is a film institute set in Dumbo, Brooklyn, NY - the riverside backdrop of many an iconic moment immortalised by the silver screen. The project’s primary mission is to promote the conservation, restoration, and use of celluloid motion picture film. The building is a temple for a perennially at-risk cultural resource, whose architecture borrows from and adapts principles, theory, and qualities which have come to define the analogue medium, and filmmaking in a broader sense.
