DART Partners With the Arts at
Museum of the City of New York

Spotlight on Design: Building in the City's Parks
Thursday, July 24, 6:30 pm

Designing new buildings for parks offers some of the greatest challenges and opportunities in urban architecture today, including the use of lawns as roofs. buildings as armatures for tapestries of living plants, wind turbines, passive and active solar power, and building textures evocative of owl feathers.

Charles McKinney, Chief of Design of Capital Projects for the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, will lead a discussion on using buildings as landscape, with Greg Kiss of Kiss + Cathcart Architects, and Jennifer Sage and Peter Coombe of Sage & Coombe Architects.
