In January 2006, an enthusiastic
audience celebrated the publication
of two books that will help make the
Big Apple a greener place to live and
work. Welcome remarks by DDC Commissioner
David Burney and OEC Director Robert Kulikowski
were followed by three presentations
of exemplary New York City sustainability
projects that illustrate ideas in Sustainable
New York City and High
Performance Infrastructure Guidelines.

Presenters included Dean Cavallaro from
the NYC Department of Environmental
Protection on the Staten Island Bluebelt,
Tom Jost of Field Operations on Fresh
Kills Park, and Signe Nielsen of Mathews
Nielsen Landscape Architecture on the
South Bronx Greenway.
