Lower Manhattan Development Corporation (LMDC),
New York, NY

HFA was a consultant to the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation (LMDC) in the areas of public information and outreach associated with the redevelopment of the World Trade Center site and surrounding neighborhoods.

During 2003, HFA provided services to the LMDC for three distinct events. For the site plan and the draft memorial program public hearings in January 2003, HFA moderated some of the hearings outside of Manhattan and located moderators for the additional boroughs. In the spring, HFA moderated a public hearing about memorial design with over 700 participants. Finally, HFA designed and facilitated a series of seven neighborhood workshops in the summer. These workshops facilitated public input into funding priorities for community development projects in neighborhoods surrounding the World Trade Center site.
