A conversation about Public Architecture

The Queens Borough Public Library system and the NYC Department of Design + Construction provide much-needed civic structures characterized by design quality and construction excellence. Architects in leadership positions make decisions on design service procurement, project scoping and execution that create sustainable and exemplary buildings. Two such leaders are Peter Magnani, QBPL Director Capital Program Management/Facilities Planning and David Resnick, DDC Deputy Commissioner. Their conversation will be moderated by Michael Plottel, AIA and Anna Torriani, AIA from the AIANY Public Architecture Committee. FREE Peter Magnani, AIA & David Resnick, AIA are the 2010 & 2009 recipients of the AIA New York Chapter Public Architect Awards.
