From Skyline to Shoreline conceptualizes a new waterfront experience for Randall's Island, nestled between the Manhattan and Queen's boroughs of New York City. This project employs a series of climate-adaptive strategies to establish ecological habitats along the shoreline to create human-ecological opportunities.
