Canstruction 2024


  • Brookfield Place 230 Vesey Street New York, NY, 10281 United States (map)

Canstruction returns to Brookfield Place! The beloved annual design competition challenges teams of architects, engineers, and contractors to build sculptures made entirely out of unopened cans of food. The large-scale sculptures are displayed in an exhibition open to the public and later donated to City Harvest to help feed those in need.

This year, there are more ways to engage with and learn about Canstruction, including a live build, tours, and fun activities.

  • LIVE BUILD: Join us in the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place and watch as one of the incredible Canstruction sculptures is built on October 31. The live build will begin at 10am and generally takes 6-8 hours.
