Daniel Libeskind's Contemporary Jewish Museum in San Francisco
San Francisco, California, USA,

Almost 100 years after its construction, the historic building in the Yerba Buena cultural district is now open to visitors as a vital node for aggregation of Jewish culture, history and ideas, where people of all ages and backgrounds can meet to share points of view and enjoy art.
A multipurpose container, the city's beating heart, expressing the relationship between old and new, between tradition and innovation.
