We are at a pivotal point in Great Lakes history. Communities along Great Lake shores are rediscovering their waterfronts and are investing in state of the art engineering, landscape planning, clean manufacturing and green infrastructure development to restore the integrity of the services provided by healthy functioning water systems. Learn how a healthy watershed can support a vibrant urban core and how cities can use their waterways and water resources economies.
Phil Enquist, leader of Skidmore Owings & Merrill's global city design practice, will share his award-winning vision for natural restoration and urban redevelopment in the megalopolis ecosystem of North America's Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River basin. Joining him, speakers from Riverkeeper's Rust to Blue initiative share a set of integrated strategies and programs dedicated to restoring Great Lake communities' most important ecological and quality of life asset, fresh water, to catalyze economic revitalization, health and well-being.
