Join us on the waters encircling Manhattan for a comprehensive examination of how climate change is reshaping our skyline, shoreline and infrastructure. We host the AIANY Climate Change and Architecture Tour aboard the Yacht Manhattan or Manhattan II where sweeping views of NYC’s skyline are examined through the lens of sustainability, waterfront resilience and the changing political priorities of our time. We will explore how climate change is affecting our city and people, and the actions NYC is taking to mitigate our emissions of greenhouse gases, enhance the design of the built environment and improve the health of our ecosystems. We will see projects that exemplify the collaboration of architects, landscape architects, urban planners, engineers, community groups and others to bring the design and construction of resiliency projects and sustainable buildings to fruition.
