Today, the building offers The Aperture, an iconic venue with a name that honors its history while ushering in a new era of immersive experiences and bold creative vision.
THE INSPIRATION
A PIONEERING
VISION
Named in honor of pioneering photographer Jessie Tarbox Beals, the first published female photojournalist in the U.S. who kept her studio at this address in the early 1900s, The Aperture carries forward a legacy of framing the world through a new lens.
A NEW VISION
REIMAGINED FOR THE FUTURE
Just as a camera's aperture frames light and perspective, the venue itself becomes a lens, designed to spotlight experiences at their most immersive and impactful. A seamless projection surface defines the main room, allowing the environment to shift entirely through content and light.
