The core team behind “Delivering the Goods” benefitted greatly from a broad group of contributing colleagues and stakeholders who increased the quality of the project by sharing insights from their personal and professional experience. As the project progressed, new stages of work were often accompanied by an enlarged group of participants. Prototypical New York City freight scenarios developed by the task force became a basis of engagement for interviews and listening sessions with stakeholders representing city, community, and industry. Following those inputs, the task force expanded to include a team from Stantec who were crucial in formulating design responses to new learnings from stakeholders. Finally, a peer-review team comprised of a cross-section of stakeholders assessed the document in detail, providing a breadth and depth of feedback that helped to assure a rich and rigorous document. AIA New York is grateful to all of these contributors.
