Session titled "Closing the Gap in New York City: Sendero Verde Under Construction in an Evolving Industry."

Ryan Lobello and Louis Koehl were joined by Dylan Martello from Steven Winter Associates for a construction update on Sendero Verde, a 100% affordable housing Passive House and mixed-use project in East Harlem.

In the four years since the start of the Sendero Verde development, the gap between a certified Passive House and a code-minimum building in NYC has narrowed significantly. With two of the development’s three buildings nearing the end of construction, Ryan, Louis & Dylan discussed how Sendero Verde is proving to be a transitional project for their practices and the wider construction industry in NYC. They spoke of their successes, near misses, and other interesting revelations made by the design and construction teams.
