| July 16, 6:30pm Museum of the City of New York 1220 5th Street, NYC |

As 21st-century skylines continue to rise, architects and engineers must solve an ever-mounting array of design and construction challenges. Join Nadine Post, award-winning journalist and Editor-at-Large for Engineering News-Record, and other leading innovators for a roundtable discussion on how they are tackling the issues presented by buildings that exceed 100 stories. Panelists include architects Rafael Vi�oly, FAIA and Paul Katz, FAIA (Kohn Pedersen Fox), structural engineer Bill Baker (Skidmore, Owings and Merrill), and mechanical engineer Ashok Raiji, Assoc. AIA (ARUP), the visionaries behind some of the tallest buildings in the world. THIS EVENT IS FREE FOR MUSEUM AND AIA MEMBERS AND STUDENTSlearn more ...
