NYC Mass Timber Studio: Advancing Sustainable Development

Mass timber construction has emerged as a revolutionary force for constructing eco-friendly, resilient, and aesthetically captivating buildings. As part of the City's decarbonization efforts, the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) launched the NYC Mass Timber Studio, a technical assistance program to support mass timber development projects in the early phases of project planning and design. Expanding the use of mass timber is a critical component to achieving the City's carbon reduction targets. Hear from leaders at NYCEDC about how this program is helping to advance innovative applications of mass timber across a variety of product types. Whether you're a designer seeking inspiration, a developer exploring sustainable building solutions, or a policymaker helping shape the future of urban planning, this session promises to inspire and inform. Join us as we journey through the cutting-edge of mass timber construction, where creativity, sustainability, and technical advancements converge to build a brighter, greener future for generations to come.
