This project at Floyd Bennett Field emphasizes cohabitation with the site, featuring a phased timeline.

In the first 10 years, the project plans to plant bamboo in the first triangle, excavate around the coast for flood prevention units, and remove asphalt to prepare for modular building construction. Additionally, existing trees and bushes will be relocated for new school farms into the second triangle.

By 20 years, a train line will connect to the first modular building. The farms will thrive, hosting farmers’ markets and tasting events to foster a diverse community. It will also introduce floating farm units in the southern parking lot to address future flooding concerns.

In 50 years, a new bridge and transport system will integrate with the project, while the modular buildings expand along the existing asphalt pathways. This bridge will be constructed from bamboo sourced from the initial phase’s bamboo farm.

After 100 years, the site is expected to be flooded, with floating farms operating alongside the modular buildings. The buildings will be elevated 10 feet above ground, ensuring safety as the flooding reaches 5 feet. Overall, asphalt will be replaced by a thriving community, adapting to changing environmental conditions.
