QUEENS BOTANICAL GARDEN EDUCATION CENTER

30-30 Thomson Ave, Long Island City, NY 11101

Client: NYC DDC

SLS an affiliate of Sweet was contracted by the New York City Department of Design and Construction to construct two new buildings to support the Queens Botanical Garden’s educational programs and offices. These buildings will showcase exceptional energy efficiency and environmental performance across all elements, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor program spaces and integrating harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. The design emphasizes the Botanical Garden’s commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship, seeking LEED Platinum certification upon completion. Key features include green roof spaces, photovoltaic panels for renewable energy generation, and an extensive landscaping package. Once complete, the facility will become a highlight of the gardens and a centerpiece for sustainability initiatives.
