The Hudson World Bridge is conceived as part of the future
development of the Manhattan’s Far West Side. Its proposed
location is adjacent to the Javits Center, continuing on the axis of 
34th street from the Westside Highway across the Hudson River to 
New Jersey. The introduction of a world scale project to this area 
will shift Manhattan’s center of gravity towards the Hudson River. 
Together with the future development of the neighboring Hudson Yards, 
the bridge will draw a substantial amount of commercial, residential and 
cultural activities to the area. The Hudson World Bridge, with its unique 
suspended structure and pedestrian Green Park between New York 
and New Jersey, is intended to be a world landmark, attracting tourists 
from all nations. It is a bridge and a destination in itself.

The bridge contains two major parts. The first is the Green Park 
which includes recreation, commercial and cultural facilities, and 
the second is the Cloud which hangs over the park. The main function 
of the Cloud is to offer public and private exhibition space for trade 
shows and galleries. The Cloud contains many green terraces and 
a large roof garden. At night, the bridge will be distinctly illuminated.

The bridge has been structurally engineered so as to include its own 
inner transportation, consisting of elevators, cable cars, escalators 
and moving sidewalks. It is connected to the outside roads by special 
ramps, providing access to supplies and emergency facilities. The bridge 
is one mile long and 250’ wide at its center. It clears 250’ above water. 
The total area of the Green Park is 500,000 s.f, and the total usable 
space of the Cloud is 1 million s.f.
