Last week the Pratt Center honored Bedford-Stuyvesant’s Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church, led by Rev. Johnny Ray Youngblood, as a “Beacon of Sustainability” for its leadership in promoting energy efficiency.
This week, the Rockefeller Foundation announced that the Pratt Center is among the recipients of its NYC Cultural Innovation Fund awards, which this year are supporting projects that use arts and culture as a vehicle for promoting environmental sustainability.
The Pratt Center has just released the Transportation Equity Atlas, a collection of downloadable maps showing commuting patterns and the length of rides to work for residents of a dozen low- and moderate-income neighborhoods in New York City, from East Flatbush to East Elmhurst to Washington Heights.
Dear Friends of the Pratt Center for Community Development:
We are pleased to announce the consolidation of the New York Industrial Retention Network (NYIRN) with the Pratt Center for Community Development.
The Pratt Center's research and recommendations on preserving diverse retail in New York's neighborhoods are heavily cited in a new report from State Senators Daniel Squadron and Shirley Huntley,"New York Retail: Serving the Public."
Help Build a More Sustainable & Equitable NY!
