The Many Faces of Sustainability

Department of Urban Design and

This presentation addresses the growing understanding that “sustainability” encompasses not just the environment but issues related to economic, social justice, human health and community stakeholder participation.

The topic will be discussed using the South Bronx as an exemplary master planning process that led to signicant federal, state and city funding for six first phase projects that are currently in design or construction.
