Hunter’s Point South was envisioned as an international model of urban ecology and a world laboratory for innovative sustainable thinking. The project is a collaboration between SWA/Balsley and Weiss/Manfredi for the open space and park design, with Arup as the prime consultant and infrastructure designer.
What was once a barren post-industrial site has been
transformed into a world-class park that is both urbane
and otherworldly. The site is waterfront and city,
gateway and sanctuary, blank slate and pentimento.
Employing innovative sustainable design strategies,
our team has woven infrastructure, landscape, and
architecture into new open spaces with connections to
the surrounding communities. The park provides safe
pedestrian access to and along the water’s edge and
spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline.
