On Pittsburgh 2050—the 'Burgh's first citywide comprehensive plan—Christine Mondor frames the challenge this way:
“We need to set a north star that’s durable and then talk about ways we can move in the short term and the direction we want to go in the long term.”

At this week's Green Building Alliance Innovation Expo brought together local sustainability and climate justice leaders gathered with residents and peers to explore exactly that vision. Christine told NEXTpittsburgh that engaging the GBA network is crucial to aligning Pittsburgh’s future infrastructure with the housing and environmental goals of the plan.

As a planning practitioner and former city planning commissioner, evolveEA co-founder Christine Mondor brings deep expertise in leveraging planning for transformative, community-led progress.
