Time Out says

You've got less than a week left to look through a number of adorable dog houses created by students of the School of Visual Arts that are currently on display on Madison Avenue between 61st and 77th streets.

The 14 doghouses, each one found inside a glass case, are part of a new exhibit aptly dubbed "Barkitecture."

In addition to its pretty unique subject matter, the show catches the eye because mounted entirely outdoors, a purposeful decision by artist and 3D design chair at SVA Kevin O'Callaghan, who assigned the project to his students.

"Rather than having to go to a gallery or go to an exhibition, the idea that they turn the corner and there's a piece of art and can maybe bring a little happiness to them, or get them thinking," O'Callaghan said to NY1.

All the designs are sure to delight you, including one resembling a bouncy castle and another one reminiscent of a classic New York City street cart vendor setup. 

The show will wrap up on January 9.
