| About the Design Commission Established in 1898 as the Art Commission, New York City's design review agency was renamed the Design Commission in July 2008 to better reflect its mission. The Design Commission reviews permanent works of art, architecture and landscape architecture proposed on or over City-owned property. Projects include construction, renovation or restoration of buildings, such as museums and libraries; creation or rehabilitation of parks and playgrounds; installation of lighting and other streetscape elements; and design, installation and conservation of artwork.

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg and Design Commission President James P. Stuckey honored ten outstanding public projects at the 27th Annual Awards for Excellence in Design held at the New Museum on July 1, 2009. This year’s awards reflect the City’s movement towards sustainable design, epitomized by PlaNYC, the long-term vision for a greener, greater New York. The event, held at the New Museum, also included a special recognition award for the Staten Island Court Complex, which will be the first courthouse in the City to be certified by the Green Buildings Council. |
