Recent Making Midtown Workshop Brings Everyone to the Table

On December 17, 2011, over 60 Garment District stakeholders and leading urban thinkers gathered together on a Saturday to work on creating a vision for a vibrant 21st Century Garment District. The Design Trust project team kicked the day off with a brief presentation on the District's real estate dynamics, existing buildings, and the public realm. Then the workshop participants broke off into small groups to review various new scenarios for the neighborhood proposed by the project team, and discuss the range of policy, zoning, and financial strategies available to implement changes in the District.
