Elena on Building Sustainable Communities
apr 24, 2012
Join us for an evening of presentations and discussion on building sustainable communities presented by 2012 NYASLA Award Winners. Presentations of these projects, ranging from master planning for an entire city to building a community garden, will illustrate the importance that sustainability has at various scales and different landscapes within the public realm. The discussion to follow, led by Nette Compton, Director of Green Infrastructure at the NYC Parks Department, will focus on how the lessons from these sites can transfer to work throughout New York and beyond. Issues that are often the focus of public work, such as funding, community engagement, lasting design and maintenance will be examined through the lens of sustainability.
