Rafael Pelli, partner of Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects, will discuss the Solaire project and his upcoming projects. Solaire residential tower in New York City’s Battery Park, designed by Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects, was chosen as an AIA Top Ten Green Project for 2004. The same team is designing two other Battery Park buildings—the Verdesian and the Visionaire—using lessons learned from the Solaire project to further the state of the art of sustainable high-rise residential design.
