24. Four Freedoms Park

Wendy and Taylor meet up on Four Freedoms Park on Roosevelt Island, a Louis Kahn-designed memorial to Roosevelt’s famous Four Freedoms speech built after his death. They talk about the documentary My Architect: A Son’s Journey, made by Louis Kahn’s son as a way to find who his father was. They stand in “The Room,” the southern tip of the park (and of Roosevelt Island). Discover the secrets of Four Freedoms Park, a park we documented over the years while it was under construction.
