Carl Cokine Anthony redefined the relationship between racial equity, regionalism, and the environment, establishing a foundation for future environmental justice initiatives.

The Walking Man has been spotted around various New York City subway stations, awarding fans with prizes and terrifying unsuspecting straphangers with an unsettling smile.

The $43 million project includes the rehabilitated Weir Greenhouse and a new L-shaped, terra-cotta-clad building that wraps around it, designed by Architecture Research Office.

When we saw this home - with its east-west exposures and windows that could be seen on both sides - we were immediately sold. It was the third house we looked at, and we were so lucky the owner accepted our offer. It was a very competitive moment for home sales in the neighborhood, and the fact we were able to make it happen felt like a dream.

Firefighters operated from tower ladders to knock down the fire and conduct searches from the exterior due to unsafe interior conditions, said Deputy Chief Anthony Arpaia.

The initiative focuses on enhancing visitor experience, improving accessibility, and advancing energy resilience, while supporting the long-term stewardship of the institution.

The Old Bridge in Mostar, known locally as Stari Most, was built between 1557 and 1566, its stone arch rising above the Neretva River for more than four centuries. It was destroyed in 1993 during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, then rebuilt in the early 21st century with international support. Today it stands as a symbol of reconciliation as much as a piece of Ottoman-era architecture.

"This recognition is a testament to the talent, dedication, and 'can-do' spirit of the professional staff on the NYS Department of Transportation's team," Commissioner Dominguez said. "From bridge strikes in the capital region to catastrophic flooding in the Adirondacks, our team members work tirelessly to restore traffic and critical infrastructure-safely and quickly-with modern and resilient structures along these vital corridors within New York State."

"Brooklyn has always been a place where movement is part of daily life. But today, Brooklynites, like all New Yorkers, are moving less, feeling more isolated and dealing with elevated rates of chronic diseases."

Though they're individually tiny, parking spots quietly play a dominant role in shaping urban landscapes. Most US cities dedicate at least 25% of their developable land to them. Some, even more. That land usage doesn't only determine the way a city looks. It also means covering large swathes of urban areas in heat-absorbing asphalt, which contributes to making summers hotter and heightens the risk of flooding since it prevents drainage during storms and heavy rainfall.

Cities around the world share a common goal: to become healthier and greener, supported by civic infrastructure that restores ecosystems and strengthens public life. The question is how to reach this. Global climate targets, local building codes, and municipal standards increasingly guide designers and planners toward better choices. Still, many cities struggle to translate these frameworks into everyday, street-level comfort and long-term ecological protection.
