On Track for More Impact

10 Years of Public Works2021 marks the close of the first decade of Public Works Partners, and while we’re glad to put 2020 behind us, we can’t help but look back fondly over all we accomplished in our first 10 years. We have supported hundreds of communities across New York City, the tri-state, and the country, and learned so much along the way. We couldn’t have done it without all of our amazing clients, partners, and colleagues—a heartfelt thank you from each of us! We are looking forward to many more years of collaboration and innovation.

January 6th, 2021 is a day we can never forget. We hope that this year will see marked advancements toward systemic anti-racism, equity, and empathy, and we as a firm vow to play an active role in that progress.
