Join us on October 20 at the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers for the Urban Green Gala! The Gala is a special night of celebration for the sustainable building community and serves as our largest fundraiser of the year, powering our critical research, policy and education.
The Gala will kick off Greenbuild in New York City and bring together sustainability professionals worldwide for a lively evening of connection and conversation. Come prepared to exchange business cards and enjoy cocktails, dinner and dessert!
We’re excited to announce that our Gala honoree is Rick Cook, Founding Partner and Design Director of COOKFOX Architects. We’re also proud to present the Héctor Figueroa award to Linda G. Nelson, the Director of the 32BJ Training Fund.
We hope you’ll join us on October 20 as we celebrate Rick and Linda, and look ahead to the future of sustainable building in New York.
