Title: Design Meets Science in a Changing Climate: A Case for Regional Thinking to Address Urban Coastal Resilience.
Authors: Weisz, Claire, Blumberg, Alan F., Keenan, Jesse M.
Source: Social Research. Fall2015, Vol. 82 Issue 3, p839-857. 19p.
Subjects: Urban planning, Urban renewal, Coastal development, Emergency management, Sustainable design, Coastal ecology, Conservation of natural resources
Geographic Terms: New York (N.Y.)
Abstract: The article discusses the development of strategic efforts and design concepts which aim to strengthen the coastal edge structures of the New York City metropolitan region, for protection from natural disasters brought by the increasing climate change as of September 2015. An international competition was announced by U.S. President Barack Obama which he called Rebuild by Design in June 2013. The objective is to come up with innovative concepts and proposals for the redevelopment of the region affected by Hurricane Sandy. A team led by design firms WXY and West 8 have proposed a regional-scale approach to coastal protection, with a concept to create an offshore barrier island called The Blue Dunes.
