Governors Island Climate Research And Educational Complex

The Trust for Governors Island recently unveiled plans to develop a 33-acre climate solutions education and research center near the southern tip of Governors Island. Proposed components include an anchoring research facility, a laboratory, flexible meeting and event spaces, dormitories associated with the proposed academic spaces, and a number of spaces to be activated for public use. All areas will be geared toward climate science research, education, policy making, and public discourse. As of January 5, 2024, the project is currently in the RFP process. The owner is evaluating proposals submitted by prospective educational and research institution partners. This project will not advertise for bids for construction services until an anchor partner is selected. A timeline for construction has not been determined as of yet.
