The Forum for Urban Design, MAS, and local civic organizations partnered to present “The Road to Resilience,” a series of workshops on rebuilding New York and New Jersey in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. On January 11, the Forum and various community groups led site visits of impacted neighborhoods and open spaces (including tours by Fellows Regina Myer, Chris Sharples, Matthew Urbanski, and Madelyn Wils). On January 12, the Forum participated in working sessions to confront issues of infrastructure, transportation, open space, and more.
The Forum applauds MAS, AIA NY, and other local civic organizations for continuing to study the region’s resilience in the face of future disasters.
