The Gowanus Atlas was created by Gowanus by Design, a non-profit co-founded by David Briggs to advocate for a community that is guided by principles of sustainability, contextual planning, diversity, and inclusion. The first edition of the Atlas gives residents, business owners, organizations, activists, developers, and agencies access to quantitative and qualitative mapped data about the area's rapidly changing conditions, its challenges, and the community's future. The customized maps show that many residents are directly impacted by the consequences of global warming, lack of infrastructure, and gentrification.
