“New York City’s Mayor Michael Bloomberg just announced the launch of the Urban Technology Innovation Center which will help fast track sustainable building practices by connecting building owners looking to be more eco-friendly with companies developing cutting edge green technology. The partnership — which will be led by the City of New York, Columbia University, the Polytechnic Institute of New York University, and City University of New York — will help building owners go green at a lower cost while allowing sustainable innovators to test their products in the marketplace and gather data about their performance in the real world.”
