Please join us virtually on Thursday, October 22nd at 7 PM when Carter Craft sits down with Rand Hoppe for our next episode of Hoboken Talks! This online program will be livestreamed on YouTube and Facebook.

Carter Craft is an urban planner with more than twenty five years of experience on- and in the waterfronts and waterways of NYC and metro New Jersey. Over his career, Carter has functioned as a catalyst, leader, team-builder, director, and project manager for a wide range of public and private organizations. As an outdoor enthusiast and water expert he brings a deep understanding of the complexity in planning and stewarding ecological and political systems entangled in the waterways of the northeast.

Since co-founding the project that grew into the Waterfront Alliance beginning in 1998, Carter has been instrumental in the establishment and growth of some of the leading organizations working on/along New York Harbor. These include the Billion Oyster Project, Gowanus Dredgers Canoe Club, New York Harbor School, Newtown Creek Alliance, the River Project, Working Harbor Committee, and many others.

Craft graduated from New York University’s Wagner School of Public Service with a Masters of Urban Planning in 1998, and from UNC-Chapel Hill in 1993 with a B.A. in Economics.

He will have many stories and insights to share about collaborating with Governors Island and the Consulate General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in New York, his dedication to Rebuild By Design, and his overall love of the Hudson River.

Please tune in on October 22nd!
