Amsterdam, NL and New York
LMCR, the second compartment of the ‘Big U’ to move forward, is a feasibility, planning, and design study to understand the best strategies for implementing flood protection for Lower Manhattan. Representing an incredibly diverse physical, social, and political cross section of the city, this project poses many challenges and opportunities in synthesizing broader urban agendas in the implementation of flood protection. For NYC’s Economic Development Corporation, One Architecture is currently working on feasibility studies and concept design.
