The Shed (formerly known as Culture Shed and Hudson Yards Cultural Shed) is the name of an independent non-profit cultural organization, as well as its eponymous six-story building under development on the far west side of Manhattan, being built within the Hudson Yards Redevelopment Project, adjacent to the northern leg of the High Line and in the Chelsea gallery district. Scheduled to open in 2019, the Shed will host activities in a wide range of cultural areas. Construction began in mid-2015. The CEO/Artistic Director for the Shed is Alex Poots.

In January 2005, the New York City Council approved the rezoning of about 60 blocks from 28th to 43rd Streets; in 2009, after the stadium failed to win state approval, the West Side Yard was similarly rezoned. As rezoned, the Hudson Yards area will have 25,800,000 square feet (2,400,000 m²) of Class A office space, 20,000 housing units, two million square feet of hotel space, 750-seat public school, one million square feet of retail and more than 20 acres of public open space, which includes building a subway extension of the 7 train to help encourage development of the Hudson Yards area.
