This Pro Tour features a deep-energy retrofit of a historic New York City Building – the former headquarters of the NYC Board of Transportation which has been re-imagined as New York University’s new space for engineering, applied science, and digital technology.

Attendees of this event will hear from members of the project team tell the story of the ambitious renovation of this building. As part of New York City’s Applied Science Initiative, New York University and the NYCEDC partnered to revitalize 370 Jay Street, the former headquarters of the MTA built in the late 1940s, and transform it into a vibrant hub where engineering, media, tech and the arts can co-exist and collaborate. 370 Jay Street will be home to leading programs in computer science and engineering, data informatics, gaming, digital media and recorded music, among others. Once completed, this flagship building will contribute to the revitalization of Downtown Brooklyn and be an integral component of the emerging Brooklyn Tech Triangle.

The first phase of the project included infrastructure and façade upgrades, and renovations of two upper CUSP (Center for Urban Science and Progress) floors. The next phases, now underway, will complete the fit-out of the remaining nine floors and the ground floor spaces.

The project was recently recognized with LEED Platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council, joining the rankings as one of four projects in New York City to achieve LEED Platinum Core and Shell.
