Universe City NYC is an ecological public health laboratory consisting of a 5,000-square-foot facility that houses a carpentry fabrication workshop, hydroponic farm indoor greenhouse, public assembly space, and community kitchen. The whole building also functions as a gallery and flexible space.
Join staff from Universe City NYC and its partners, Grow Brownsville, to see the facilities in action and learn about their work to provide free, fresh and nutritious food to community members and create equity and workforce development opportunities.
How does the combination of financial, cultural, and community capital enrich quality of life? The "Building Capital: Value of Place" series showcases places that play a vital role fostering community connections and local culture, telling the story of how the space was designed, built, and financed, how it’s being used, and how they contribute to the financial security and well-being of residents. Building Capital is the latest installment of OHNY’s Urban Systems program and is presented in partnership with Bloomberg Connects
