Awards & Honors

Two Spitzer alumni are among the talented young urbanists selected for the Urban Design Forum’s 2022 Class of Forefront Fellows. Yoo Jin Lee (B.Arch 2012) and Veronica Rivas Plaza (B.Arch 2015) will be exploring how New York City can develop a more sustainable relationship with its waste output as part of the organization’s New Loops project in partnership with DSNY.

The Urban Design Forum is a New York City-based non-profit focused on engaging civic-leaders and industry professionals in work that aims to make the city more equitable by design. Please join us in extending our best wishes to Yoo Jin and Veronica as they embark on this exciting work!
