Please join us for an online panel discussion about one of New York City’s newest and most dynamic parks, Little Island. The conversation will focus on the collaborative work that went into the park’s construction along the transforming Hudson River Park, the diverse community of visitors the park serves, and how landscape architecture and access to urban green space can create a more equitable, revitalized New York. Featuring a panel of experts who have been intimately involved with the design and running of the park, the panel will be moderated by Michael Kimmelman, The New York Times’ architecture critic.
This is a pre-recorded event.
