Atlantic Crossing
An integrated cultural and entertainment district, designed as the first of its kind
Manning, APC designed Atlantic Crossing as the first comprehensively planned art, culture, and entertainment community on the African continent with overt linkages to the African Diaspora worldwide. Atlantic Crossing, located in Accra, Ghana, is designed to establish a global position as the focal point for AfroPop art, culture, and entertainment. Visuals, dance, music, literature, theatre, media, cuisine, and fashion will be combined to create a unique destination with a global audience.
The plan establises a wide spectrum of museums, theatres, galleries, studios, live/work spaces, cafes, restaurants, nightclubs and art education facilities supported by a world-class technology platform. These will be combined with high quality hotels, residences, offices, shopping, and family attractions to create a sustainable creative community. With the arts as a core organizing principle, Atlantic Crossings will continually renew itself.
