Every October, Open House New York (OHNY) offers behind-the-scenes access to some of the city’s most significant spaces—celebrating the architecture, design, and people shaping New York’s built environment. As part of the 2025 OHNY Weekend, Dattner Architects is proud to facilitate tours to four of our award-winning projects, providing an inside look at the designs that define our work.

The Spring Street Salt Shedwill be open for a unique opportunity to look inside two award-winning municipal landmarks that are essential to New York City’s infrastructure.

The 91st Street Marine Transfer Station plays a vital role in moving household waste from Manhattan to its final destination. After the closure of the Fresh Kills Landfill in 2001, the City adopted a sustainable truck- and barge-based system for exporting waste. At 91st Street, trash is unloaded from collection trucks, compacted into sealed containers, and transferred onto barges bound for waste-to-energy plants in Pennsylvania and New York. Guided tours will be led by representatives from Dattner Architects and NYC Sanitation. This reserved tour is sold out.
