The installation in Central Park was completed with the flourish of the 7,503 fabric panels on February 12, 2005.

The artwork remained for 16 days, then the doors were removed and the materials recycled.

All doors were 4.87 m high and varied in width from 1.68 to 5.48 m. Based on 25 different widths of walkways, in 37 kilometers of walkways in Central Park.

Free-hanging saffron-coloured fabric panels, suspended from the horizontal top of the doors, were lowered to approximately 2.1m above the ground. The gates were spaced at 12-foot intervals, except where low branches extended above the walkways. Doors and cloth panels could be seen from afar through the leafless branches of the trees.
