在纽约建立一个公平的经济体系需要开创性的城市设计方法。纽约是美国最大的经济体，但是近期失业率创历史新低，低收入、高租金，以及飞速增长的物价体系导致劳动力的工作愈发艰难。

更糟糕的是，联邦政府正在减少对人力资本的投资，从教育、低收入住房、健康和人力服务，以及必要的基础设施，这些对各个区域的发展都构成了威胁。

为了应对经济危机，德布拉西奥（de Blasio）政府承诺通过资本投资和土地使用工具创造10万个高薪职位。但是，人们如何能够将全新的商业发展与迫切的住房需求相平衡？因此，是时候对中央商务区、行政区，以及工业区进行改造，那么该如何优化公共空间？升级基础设施呢？

科学技术的进步如何影响城市景观？自动化可能会威胁城市目前就业形势，电子商务正在改变城市的零售体系和货运网络，合作式工作和共享经济已经为小企业开辟了新的世界。人们能否利用技术塑造一个更加活跃和公平的城市？

Forum邀请参赛者们从经济发展的角度关注不断发展的设计行业、政策倡议和创意融资理念。主办方正在征集能够解决这些问题的设计方案：
如何使用创意分区、公共领域投资和新基础设施来促进社会的经济发展？

我们欢迎设计、政治和创意融资方面的专业人士构思以下的内容：
•        中央商务区
•        全新的工作区域
•        文化和夜生活区
•        工业商业区
•        商业走廊和BID
•        移动网络
•        开放空间

Urban Design Forum工作团队挑选最出彩的方案，获奖者在2018年6月至2019年4月期间，将与城市领导人共同参与一系列的演讲、参观和圆桌会议讨论。获奖的方案也将在2019年出版物中刊登，出版物将发放给整个地区的主要政治家和广大公众。

主办方正在征集具有适用性的大胆想法。可以提交手绘草图、概念方案、详细设计、论文、视频等设计构思，方案理念要适用于当地城市环境，也可借鉴来自其他城市的类似项目，提交的作品数量没有限制，但每个作品都必须单独提交。

Building an equitable economy in New York City requires a groundbreaking approach to urban design. New York City lays claim to our nation’s largest economy and a record low unemployment rate. Yet stagnating wages, skyrocketing rents and growth in the gig economy have made the city increasingly inaccessible to the urban workforce.
Even worse, the federal government is reducing investment in human capital – from education and low-income housing, health and human services, and essential infrastructure – threatening upward mobility across the boroughs.
To confront the affordability crisis, the de Blasio administration has pledged to create 100,000 good-paying jobs through capital investment and land use tools. But how can we balance the need for new commercial development with much-needed housing? Is it time to transform our central business district, revamp our outer borough downtowns, and adapt our industrial zones? Where could we invest in public space and upgrade infrastructure?
And how will advances in technology impact the urban landscape? Automation may threaten nearly a tenth of the city’s current jobs. E-commerce is transforming the city’s retail corridors and freight networks. Co-working and the sharing economy have opened new neighborhoods to small businesses. Will we be able to harness technology to shape a more dynamic and equitable city?
The Forum invites you to advance designs, policy initiatives and creative financing ideas focused on the evolving economy. We are looking for proposals that explore the question:
How can we use creative zoning, investment in the public realm, and new infrastructure to enhance economic outcomes for all?

We welcome design, policy, and creative financing proposals pertaining to the below sites of opportunity:
•        Central Business Districts
•        New Working Neighborhoods
•        Cultural & Nightlife Districts
•        Industrial Business Zones
•        Commercial Corridors & BIDs
•        Mobility Networks
•        Open Space

The most compelling ideas will form the basis of the Urban Design Forum’s Work Force program, a series of presentations, tours, and roundtables debates with key city leaders hosted monthly from June 2018 to April 2019. Successful proposals will also be included in a 2019 publication, distributed to key civic leaders and a broad public throughout the region.
We are looking for bold ideas with real world applicability. We welcome napkin sketches, policy proposals, detailed designs, essays, videos, etc. Ideas may apply to sites in the City of New York or the greater New York area. Examples from other cities that can be applied to New York City are also welcome. There is no limit to the number of ideas you may submit, but each must be submitted individually.
