美国第32任总统富兰克林·D·罗斯福在其著名的1941年国情咨文中提出了四个目标:言论和言论自由;礼拜自由;免于匮乏;免于恐惧。四大自由公园-这是对罗斯福的“四大自由”演讲的一次空间庆祝和纪念-在最初构想的将近40年之后,终于要开放了。
该空间由美国建筑师路易斯·卡恩于1973年设计,位于纽约市东河罗斯福岛南端。由于卡恩于1974年去世,当时缺乏政治和财政支持,其计划被搁置了大约30年,直到2010年才开始施工。
四大自由公园-一个几何图形的三角形空间-围绕着它尖端附近的一个焦点旋转;由艺术家乔·戴维森创作的1,050磅重的罗斯福总统青铜半身像。
它还包括一个方形的花岗岩地区,卡恩称之为“房间”,一个露天广场,面向水和联合国大厦过河。根据建筑师的设想,使用的石头和卡恩在1973所描述的一样(北卡罗莱纳蒙特艾里的花岗岩)。
美丽的园林公园也有五棵铜山毛榉树,这标志着它的入口,以及120棵小叶林荫树在其他地方的地面。
这是纽约市唯一的路易·卡恩(LouisKahn)项目,也是这位建筑师卓越职业生涯中的最后一个项目,历时约50年,其中包括耶鲁大学美术馆(YaleUniversityArt)和加州萨尔克学院(SalkInstitute)等关键作品。
四大自由公园将成为一个重要的城市地标,在建筑和教育领域都是一个亮点。它还提供了一个全新的12.5英亩的海滨公共空间和壮观的景观曼哈顿天际线。

It also includes a square granite area that Kahn called the 'Room' - an open-air plaza looking towards the water and the United Nations building across the river Photography: Paul Warchol
True to the architect's vision, the stone used was the same one that Kahn specified in 1973 (granite from North Carolina's Mont Airy). Photography: Paul Warchol
The beautifully landscaped park also features five Copper Beech trees, which mark its entrance, as well as 120 Little Leaf Linden trees elsewhere within the grounds. Photography: Paul Warchol
The park offers a brand new 12.5-acre waterfront public space with spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline. Photography: Paul Warchol
