MORE SESSION DETAILS
Manufacturing businesses are expanding in urban environments for the first time in decades. National and global trends are causing the manufacturing playing field to “level” – enabling the rebound of an important blue-collar job sector in cities across the United States. To seize this moment, cities must find a way to build industrial uses more intelligently into the heart of urban environments. Explore the ongoing activation-planning process to upgrade the Brooklyn Army Terminal, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Kearny Point in New Jersey, and in New Orleans.
