Times Square Heart Installation built from the debris of Hurricane Sandy

A romantic installation was recently unveiled in Times Square, New York by Brooklyn-based design firm Situ Studio called Heartwalk, a heart-shaped enclosure built using salvaged wood from the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Collected both from New York and New Jersey, the boards form a slatted construction that lifts from the ground and is illuminated from within. Visitors are encouraged to enter the installation and literally stand in the heart of the city.
