Twenty years ago, The Gates turned Central Park into a breathtaking work of art, with 7,503 flowing saffron-colored panels stretching across 23 miles of pathways. First imagined by Christo and Jeanne-Claude in 1979, the project took decades to become reality, finally coming to life in 2005 with the support of Mayor Michael Bloomberg. From now through April 16th, you can experience The Gates again through a special exhibition at The Shed and a new AR (augmented reality) re-creation in Central Park. Download the Bloomberg Connects app to explore the AR experience and learn more about its history.
