An Update from The Frick Collection:
Selldorf Architects Chosen as Architects for
Expansion and Upgrade

In June 2014, The Frick Collection announced plans to expand the institution, which
included the replacement of the prized Russell Page garden with a new, out-of-scale
tower. FRIENDS, among many other groups like Unite to Save the Frick opposed these
inappropriate plans. After much criticism, the Frick withdrew its proposal the following
year.
Yesterday, the Frick announced that after a year of consideration Selldorf Architects has
been chosen to design an upgrade, enhancement, and expansion of the museum's
facilities. The Frick states that the new design will work within the museum's existing
footprint while preserving the domestic scale and aesthetic of the original home and
gardens.
FRIENDS, which has been involved with and spoke out against this proposal in the past,
looks forward to seeing the revised designs in the winter of 2017.
