Production Designer Mark Frieberg needed to cover the 131’ diameter Boat Basin in New York City’s Riverside Park. The cover needed to be translucent, waterproof and un-guided beyond its circumference. Using a 39’ high center truss on a truss base, IWEISS designed a nylon net superstructure to support a light weight polyethylene tent. It took only five weeks from design through engineering to completion.
