Big TV, Bigger Plaza Getting Ready at Eventi

Out on the plaza the pavers are laid and trees are in, lining a pedestrian avenue leading north to 30 Street. On the southern side, what looks to be a low stage of a fountain is nearly ready to ripple. Everything outside is sleek and understated, until the Kimpton Hotels crew switches on the "20-foot-wide multi-media art screen" and the plaza goes from sedate to pixel overloaded. Whether the screen is on or off, this outdoor rumpus room looks to offer a a big change of pace from the canyon of condos to the east along Sixth Avenue, and the bustling crowds of Herald Square a few blocks north.
