CODA's "Party Wall," the winner of MoMA's 2013 Young Architects Program opened this week at PS1 in Queens. The structure, which by contest rules has to provide shade, seating, and water for the Warm Up concert series, has 120 detachable tables and benches and a water system that supplies a nearby fountain. The "Party Wall" also meets the sustainable guidelines of the program by using recycled materials from the Comet skateboard company, also based in CODA's home city of Ithaca, NY.

The Party Wall will be installed until August 31. Read MoMA's brief about the "Party Wall," and check out the schedule for this summer's Warm Up series.
