Progress and Preservation: Reuse for a Resilient City

Join The Municipal Art Society for Progress and Preservation: Reuse for a Resilient City on Wednesday, May 6 at the Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse at Lincoln Center. This half-day symposium brings together practitioners, policymakers, and advocates to explore how New York City can better use its existing buildings to meet housing needs, advance climate goals, and sustain the cultural life of our neighborhoods.

Conversations will look at the policy frameworks that shape adaptive reuse and reinvestment in existing buildings, the technical and financial considerations that determine feasibility, and the evolving role of preservation in a changing city.
