MORE SESSION DETAILS
Cities become resilient by design. This session features three award-winning examples of projects that have used the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure's (ISI) internationally recognized Envision rating system for measuring resilience and sustainability. These case studies include Atlanta's Historic Fourth Ward Park, Kansas City’s suite of Middle Blue River green-infrastructure projects, and New York City’s Sheldon Avenue stormwater-management project. A member of ISI's Review Board will also discuss the recent update to the Envision rating system, its first major revision in more than five years.
