Please enter your information to access this issue:
Our April 2019 issue takes a closer look at Amazon’s current footprint in New York City, featuring a handy map that pinpoints the range of the company’s spatial typologies across the five boroughs. The debate over its now-canceled Queens headquarters and the process surrounding the decision-making continue to have aftershocks in the city and around the country, and raises the question of how cities will address the spatial and social impact of tech giants moving to town.
With the urgency of climate change looming on the horizon, AN also talks to architects about their wish lists for what a Green New Deal means for the field. How can the principles of this wide-ranging platform transform how buildings are constructed, the policies that undergird infrastructure and energy use, and the types of AEC jobs that will be available in the future?
