This places is always closed. Simply disappointing.

One of my favorite places in nyc. What an amazing preservation of something so fine and yet so fresh all the time. Such an exquisite room of dirt!

I think it's funny to bring your friends there, stating that it's an art piece and then seeing their reaction when they see it
Jared Hatch
Wonderful to think that this has been alive for so many years 🌱

It's a room full of diet! It's also one of the most serene places I've even been. The quiet is amazing, considering the hustle and bustle of the city.

a tad underwhelming! I was really excited to visit, but was left a bit unfulfilled.

I wish they had more information about the installation. You can only see what you can from one vantage point too. I’m just not sure what it means.. Perhaps I will one day lol

Yes, it's the room filled with soil but it has a good story. Imagine keeping it intact since 1977? With time it gains even more value and is provocative. Had a great chat with the working staff there and recommend you do the same, it will provide a good perspective about this place. Enjoy!

Very interesting secret place. Visit if you're having a SOHO walking tour
