Description
Next Generation Infrastructure highlights hopeful examples from around the world that demonstrate how our complex, interdependent utilities can support an urbanizing world, subject to carbon constraints and the impacts of climate change. It shows how critical infrastructure might be designed to be more efficient, less environmentally damaging, and more resilient, with crosscutting benefits and lower costs.
Hillary Brown is Professor of Architecture at the City College of New York’s Spitzer School of Architecture, Principle of New Civic Works and Founder of the City of New York’s Office of Sustainable Design.
