Urban Agriculture at the Grand Concourse
The "Agricultural Urbanism" vision is guided by the principles of weaving urban and natural systems through the urban fabric of the Grand Concourse. Localized food production, maximized public space, multi-modal transportation, and the harnessing of storm water and natural energy bring health and vitality to a community otherwise plagued by high rates of asthma and low access to fresh food.
