A video of this event is available on the MAS YouTube Channel.

This fall, MAS is celebrating design excellence in New York City with our 2023 MASterworks Awards! We have curated a selection of in person explorations and online in-conversations with this year’s honored projects.

On Friday, October 20th from 12-1 PM, join us for a virtual conversation celebrating Staten Island Animal Care Center, 2023 MASterworks Winner for Best New Building. Team members from Garrison Architects, the design team behind the project, will present a virtual tour of the center and then engage in conversation about how the project came to be. MAS President, Elizabeth Goldstein, will moderate this conversation.

Staten Island Animal Care Center creates a humane and controlled environment for animals awaiting adoption. An innovative, sleek structure, it maximizes natural light, creating a great living environment for animals and excellent work environment for staff. Learn more about the center here.
