Decarbonized New York is a new manifesto for sustaining Manhattan’s future. It takes the Seagram Building - one of New York’s most influential and simultaneously most polluting buildings and imagines its adaptive re-use. The Seagram Building’s iconicity reincarnates as a beacon for making Manhattan’s and the world’s post-war office buildings sustainable.
