It's not every day that you have the opportunity to activate a defunct early 20th century powerhouse on the Brooklyn waterfront! Really excited to have supported the New York City Economic Development Corporation in bringing forth this new backdrop for a campus devoted to modern manufacturing, creative arts, and climate innovation. The new mural overlooks a sequence of public spaces that WXY completed for the Brooklyn Army Terminal in 2020. Congratulations to the artist/collaborator Ege Soyuer (www.instagram.com/egetron) for bringing this to life, Duggal Visual Solutions for the amazing install and my colleagues at WXY who helped bring this to fruition! #BrooklynArmyTerminal #Powerhouse #Mural #Activation

“The work of government is never just about one person. It’s about the collective effort and ensuring that every decision, every program puts women and girls at the center.” – First Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer At Women.NYC, we believe in the power of collective action to drive change. Together with Amplify Her Foundation and Women’s Philanthropy Institute, we are proud to celebrate #GivetoWomenandGirlsDay — a powerful call to action to address the reality that less than 2% of philanthropic funding reaches women and girls' organizations. With over $50 million in city funding through #WomenForwardNYC, we’re not just raising awareness—we’re leading a movement to create real, lasting impact by ensuring women and girls are at the heart of every policy and program. #GiveToWomenAndGirls #WomenForward #ThoughtLeadership #WomenEmpowerment #PhilanthropyForChange
