Rising Currents: Projects for New York’s Waterfront

Last fall, I was on a multi-disciplinary team in residence at P.S. 1 in Long Island City. Our task was to come up with soft infrastructure solutions for the New York Harbor from the challenges posed by rising sea levels in the coming decades. Confused? Visit the exhibit on view at the Museum of Modern Art from March 24-October 11, 2010. The show has been covered by dozens of publications; here are some of the best. Is it art, architecture, science, or science fiction? You decide. Look for my project, Zone 2/ Working Waterline/ team led by Matthew Baird Architects.
