NYC Schools & Climate Resilience: Hope or Gamble? – Ep 111 with Caleb Crawford

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, Joe Menchefski heads to the heart of New York City’s public school system with Caleb Crawford, Director of Sustainable Design and Resiliency at the NYC School Construction Authority. With decades of experience as an architect, educator, and environmental advocate, Caleb dives into how one of the world’s largest school systems is confronting climate change head-on. From electrification and green infrastructure to passive survivability and equity-driven design, Caleb shares the innovative—and often surprising—ways NYC is making schools safer, healthier, and more resilient. He discusses the critical role of local laws, the balancing act of building in a dense city, and how even a brick wall can teach us something about thermal comfort. Whether you're designing new schools or retrofitting old ones, this episode is a masterclass in building for the future, today.
