'Portal' installation in NYC offers window to Dublin

The Portal, a public installation in New York City that provides a 24/7 livestream of Dublin, Ireland, is now open in Manhattan.

New York City and Dublin simultaneously debuted their portal installations on Wednesday, offering a window between the two cities and connecting people in real time.
