People from many nations arrive in New York City to pursue the American Dream. The New York City College of Technology team embodies this spirit in its D.O.E. Solar Decathlon 2015 project, called DURA-an acronym for Diverse, Urban, Resilient, and Adaptable.
"A lot of our work has been inspired by our location," says decathlete Evgenia Gorovaya, a sophomore studying environmental planning and math. "The qualities of diversity and being urban go hand-in-hand because City Tech [New York City College of Technology] is one of the most diverse colleges in the United States. And a lot of different mindsets went into developing our design." For the complete story, see the Solar Decathlon Blog.
