Sustainable Pratt and the New York City Soil and Water Conservation District are sponsoring a workshop on "Better Site Development" to be held on Thursday, December 4th, 8:30am - 1:00pm, Pratt Institute Manhattan (144 W 14th St), Room 213.

This workshop will provide landscape architects, designers, and city planners the tools to develop sites with a sustainable design. Presenters will give attendees examples and resources focused on redeveloping NYC buildings and landscape to improve environmental quality, reduce the burdens on current city infrastructure, enhance site aesthetics, and protect surrounding natural resources.

Topics will include an overview of Low Impact Development (presented by Tatiana Morin of NYCSWCD); pros, cons and structural precautions for LID implementation (presented by Tim Conover White of eDesign Dynamics, LLC); and stormwater BMP design and construction (presented by Marit Larson of City of NY Dept of Parks and Recreation).
