View the winners of the Van Alen Institute and New York City Council Reimagining Brooklyn Bridge Competition!
With aims to spark a larger discussion about New York’s infrastructure, the Reimagining Brooklyn Bridge competition finalists each provided a design to emphasize “climate action, social equity, and creative expression.” Thanks to the Van Alen Institute‘s multidisciplinary design jury and a public vote held during the competition’s Virtual Design Show, the winning designs are “Brooklyn Bridge Forest” and “Do Look Down.”
Within the competition’s “Professional” and “Young Adult” categories, the competition brief was to provide proposals that would help redefine the Brooklyn Bridge to become “a new kind of icon.” Read more about the winners check out their project details below.
