Build Earth Live, the world’s premier, collaborative openBIM event series, is proud to announce the award ceremony for its 48-hour global BIM competition called Build New York Live that will take place at 4 p.m. ET on September 25 at the AIA New York Chapter Center for Architecture.

 

Build New York Live 2015 challenges design and build professionals from around the globe to re imagine the Western edge of the Western Yard site at Hudson Yards. By taking advantage of the site’s river-front position, contestants are creating a site centered on a sports-based community outreach ethos. The site is envisioned to be a bridge connecting all communities, drawing New Yorkers from every socio-economic position and bringing them into the center of Manhattan through sports. 
Build Earth Live is thrilled to have its events sponsors, including headline sponsor and global CAD/BIM design software developer Vectorworks, Inc., as well as BIM Crunch and Fundlife International, each bring their individual expertise to the event.
