Sterling Project Development

Ten years ago, artists/activist/lawyer @Jane Greengold was walking by a NYCHA community and wondered why those metal fences were there, limiting residents' ability to use their open space. That question started a movement. For that time we've been working with NYCHA and their communities to make quality, resident-guided open space a reality for everyone of the 600,000 residents. Today, we cut the fence at the Lilian Wald Houses, marking the beginning of construction on our capital project, a journey marked by overcoming significant challenges and even more significant victories. Video below! Along the way, we leveraged this idea with partners on a series of other initiatives, where open space is being brought to other communities, including the Green Space Connections initiative led by the Public Housing Community Fund and a nationwide effort co-led by Trust for Public Land. We also released a resident toolkit, (https://lnkd.in/ePfBhw8P) to give power to those who will use these spaces. Thank you to all of the partners who've made this work possible.

The city’s efforts to transform Governors Island into a $700 million environmental research center are taking shape. The design includes a structure made of climate-friendly mass timber, linked by a curvy canopy of solar panels, that’s intended as a model for large-scale sustainable development. New designs reviewed by Crain’s provide a sneak peek at the project, known as The New York Climate Exchange, led by Stony Brook University to transform one of the island’s last swaths of developable land into a 400,000-square-foot incubator for the city’s green economy. A key part of the project’s ethos is to help mainstream climate-conscious innovation in large-scale construction projects. Chief among those efforts is encouraging a wider embrace of mass timber, an engineered lumber that is used to create wood buildings sourced from younger, softer woods as opposed to increasingly scarce old-growth forests. The prefabricated timber can save on material costs and requires fewer workers to install than steel or concrete. “One goal of this project is to make mass timber a little bit less intimidating for New York builders,” said Andrew Winters, the director of capital projects, planning and development for The New York City Climate Exchange. “We want to pave the way for, whether it's developers or other institutions, to make the decision to use timber, because it will have already been done.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/grV_MVD4
