This New Building Will Change the Face of Downtown L.A.

The concrete, steel, and glass Broad museum, which opens to the public in September, invites visitors for a rare sneak peek this month.

The building, designed by Diller, Scofidio + Renfro, with Gensler as executive architect, is clad in a punctured concrete exoskeleton, a contemporary nod to the city's midcentury architecture.
