Vessel in New York City's Hudson Yards reopens with safety netting after 3-year closure due to suicides.
The Vessel in New York City's Hudson Yards has reopened after a three-year closure due to suicides, now featuring safety netting designed to prevent further incidents. Criticized for its low railings, the structure also includes increased security, a buddy system, and mental health resource signage. While the netting addresses safety concerns, some architecture critics deem the Vessel visually unappealing. Visitors can access the site for a $10 fee.
