APA SMART CITY DESIGN COMPETITION
Finalist
I was part of a team of four urban planners and we were selected as finalists for the American Planning Association Smart City Design Competition to present at the National Conference in New York City in May 2017.
Smart City designs are large-scale, innovative attempts to use current technologies to solve urban problems. As we began to design our site, we wondered how just a single block in Manhattan could make a meaningful contribution to such extensive goals.
Solution
Our main focus areas include Data, Mobility, Environment and Economic Development. All smart projects must start somewhere, usually on a small scale.
By clustering Smart Cities projects in a single urban space, innovators can work together and benefit from shared knowledge, resources, and audience.The Chelsea beta hub is a beta test for the City of New York and how it can solve urban problems through smart solutions.
