Monthly Waterfront Webinar Series
Waterfront Webinar: From Tall Ships to Blue Highways: Honoring America’s Past, Navigating New York’s Future(June 30, 12pm)
Waterfront Webinar: From Tall Ships to Blue Highways: Honoring America’s Past, Navigating New York’s Future(June 30, 12pm)
As America marks its 250th anniversary with Sail250's historic gathering of tall ships, New York City has a unique opportunity to reflect on its maritime origins while charting a bold new course for the future. This panel explores how the city’s working waterfront—once the backbone of commerce, immigration, and cultural exchange—remains an essential asset in our climate-resilient future. Experts in transportation, climate planning, and maritime innovation will discuss the NYC Blue Highways Program as a modern evolution of the harbor that built the nation. Together, we will reimagine how waterways can once again move people, goods, and opportunity across the city, reducing congestion, supporting local jobs, strengthening supply-chain resilience, and reconnecting communities to the water. Join us as we link America’s maritime legacy with the innovative solutions needed for the next 250 years.

Green or Gray? What Communities Gain and Lose from Different Resilience Solutions (Sept. 23, 12pm EDT)
Cities everywhere are debating the merits of green vs. gray climate infrastructure — but communities are the ones who live with the consequences. This panel looks at the real-world impacts of bioswales, berms, seawalls, stormwater tunnels, wetlands, and hybrid systems. What feels safe? What feels imposed? What works… and for whom? Hear directly from neighborhoods that have experienced both the benefits and the burdens of different resilience approaches, and learn how to design solutions that reflect community priorities.

Who Pays for Protection? Financing a Just Climate Future (Sept. 25, 12pm EDT)
Resilience isn’t just a technical challenge — it’s a financial one. From flood protection to cooling infrastructure, someone pays the bill. But who should? This session explores public, private, and hybrid financing models through a justice lens. We’ll look at how resilience investments impact rents, property taxes, insurance costs, small businesses, and frontline families. Join experts, community organizations, and financial innovators to discuss how we fund a safer city without leaving vulnerable neighborhoods behind.
