President’s Medal Block Party 2023 | Rosalie Genevro

On May 25, 2023, the Architectural League held a public celebration for 2023 President’s Medal honoree Rosalie Genevro.

The open air celebration took place on Crosby Street between Jersey and Prince Streets, in Soho, Manhattan. It included a participatory installation by Greg Corbino; a drumline by Fogo Azul; chats with climate scientists Klaus Jacob (Columbia University) and Eric W. Sanderson (New York Botanical Garden); food and beverages from the Street Vendor Project; furniture by Street Lab; and remarks by Greg Corbino, Mario Gooden, the League’s president, and Rosalie Genevro.

In honor of Rosalie’s commitment to conversations on the built environment’s relationship to climate change, the event sought to inspire visions for a circular future.

“To survive, we must close the circle. We must learn how to restore to nature the wealth we borrow from it.” —Barry Commoner
