New York City has officially kicked-off the planning stages for the next Comprehensive Waterfront Plan. Published every ten years, the Comprehensive Waterfront Plan outlines the strategic vision of the City’s waterfront for the decade ahead and has traditionally encompassed priorities such as expanding public access, supporting the working waterfront, and restoring the ecology of our shores. The plan is scheduled to be released in 2020, with public input beginning now. Hear from Director of Waterfront and Open Space Planning for the New York City Department of City Planning, Michael L. Marrella, and Waterfront Management Advisory Board and AIA NY member, Jay Valgora, as they discuss the last waterfront plans, goals of the new plan, steps ahead, and outline engagement strategies for the design community.
