The Society of American Registered Architects New York Council (SARA NY) has honored SCAPE’s conservation, resiliency and design collaboration with Perkins+Will as a 2016 award winner! The project, The Hudson Riverport is located in Kingston, NY, focusing on developing a landscape strategy tool kit to enhance existing wetland buffers and vegetation to address increasing risk of flooding downtown and sea level rise.
Creating a suiting parallel, this ecological and urban toolkit that details interventions integrating both waterfront and inland strategies, will be awarded in one of the most notorious water vulnerable neighborhoods in New York, Battery Park. The 2016 SARA / NY Celebration of Architecture and Design Awards are being held at Battery Gardens Restaurant on Tuesday, June 28, 2016 from 6PM – 10PM
