Inside the ”Winter Garden” aka main lobby of the Comcast Center. Two show-stopping public art installations.
The Comcast Experience, a 25.4ft tall, 83.3 feet, 2,000sf high-definition LED screen with incredibly clear, almost 3-D moving images, ranging from the clock wheels pictured here, to monumental natural landscapes to Betty Boop dancing.
And the permanent installation ”Humanity in Motion” by Jonathan Borofsky – 12 realistically painted life-size figures of stainless steel, walking on horizontal poles and two figures standing at ground level. Guess which ones?

Lobbies in new buildings tend to look similar – cold and uninteresting; this one is exceptional!
