Brooklyn Yards


I've been busy working on stormwater sustainability schematics for Frank Gehry's Brooklyn Yards, a controversial new urban design mega-project to be anchored by a new arena for the Nets. Opinions vary wildly, as one would expect on a project of this size and in Brooklyn. Politics aside, I think it will be difficult for any single designer to create complex, dynamic, interweaved city life on a large scale from scratch, which is what Gehry is attempting here. I look forward to seeing how he handles the challenge with further development of the design.
