Living Lab
Governors Island is itself an experiment in creating resilient coastal landscapes with a new 43-acre park designed to address projected sea-level rise and dozens of educational and cultural partners engaging in these issues. The Living Lab, established in 2023 and led by the Trust for Governors Island, is a new platform for research, partnerships, and programs to amplify climate action that includes the following components:
