"Less is more." - Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. This simple yet profound statement from a famous architect reminds us of the power of simplicity and efficiency, especially when it comes to building our cities. Today, as we face the challenges of making our urban areas more sustainable and living spaces more efficient, this idea has never been more relevant. Our cities are more than just buildings; they're communities that reflect our hopes, our problems, and our solutions. With environmental concerns on the rise, it's crucial that we focus on making our cities work better for both people and the planet. This means we need to think carefully about how we design and build. Every new building or space should not only look good but also be good for the environment and easy for people to live in. This includes using cleaner, greener technologies, choosing materials that don't harm the planet, and designing homes and buildings that use energy wisely. Making homes more efficient is especially important because it directly affects people's lives, how much we use resources, and how we impact the environment. By tackling these issues, we can create cities that are not just places to live but spaces that care for our well-being and the health of our planet.

How can waterfront industry and public access exist together? Our new report "Integrating Industry and Public Access for a Sustainable Future: Case Studies from New York City and Around the World" dives into the topic and explores how ports worldwide are incorporating public spaces into their design. The image of a dark and unwelcoming industrial waterfront is a thing of the past. From observation towers to educational centers to public walkways, these ports make waterfront places worth visiting.
