The Lewis Center Sustainability Forum, which continues the spirit of the Randall Lewis/ULI Building Healthy Places Forum and is generously supported by ULI Foundation Governor Randall Lewis, is a content-rich, interactive event bringing together leaders in sustainability, resilience, health, and social equity. In the inaugural convening, participants will explore the transformation of Pier 57 into a vibrant mixed-use space, featuring a public park, community and educational facilities, and Market 57—a new dining destination celebrating NYC’s local food culture, alongside discussions on equitable electrification. The Forum is open to Full Members attending the Spring Meeting. Associated Members interested in attending can reach out to [email protected].
