Urban Planning

City on the Loop reimagines a flood prone coastline in Brooklyn as a continuous urban edge that adapts to rising sea levels. Built over existing infrastructure, the design introduces elevated housing, light rail, and flood resilient public programs in three phases. A land sea gradient replaces hard boundaries, enabling architecture, ecology, and community life to interact. The loop acts as both a spatial structure and an adaptive system, evolving with environmental shifts and offering a framework for future intelligent, climate-responsive governance.
