A symposium convened by the Institute for Public Architecture with Pratt Institute School of Architecture

Mayor de Blasio has presented an ambitious housing plan that aspires to transform development in New York City. “An Inventory of What’s Possible” celebrates the history and potential of New York as a national leader in housing.

On April 10, architects, historians, urban advocates, and City officials will present case studies of completed work, addressing design excellence and community priorities. Together, the projects offer an inventory of bold, realizable possibilities for a transformed New York.

The event is free and open to the public: RSVP here!
