Evan Sweet is the Operations + Economic Development Manager of the Meatpacking Business Improvement District. Before joining the Meatpacking District, Evan worked extensively in economic development and urban planning within the New York region. He has a deep understanding of city policy, zoning, and real estate development in New York. Marquis projects Evan has contributed to include DSNY’s Commercial Waste Zones program, Central Business District Tolling, and the Islanders Stadium at Belmont Park.

Join us in the Meatpacking District with Evan Sweet and our Streets Ahead Working Groups while they explore existing streetscape activations and future opportunities for a more people-centered public realm.

Throughout the fall, ​​Streets Ahead is convening interdisciplinary Working Groups to advance a set of visionary proposals and tools for a more vibrant, equitable streetscape. Each Working Group will focus on one of five key lenses: Commerce, Care, Climate, Culture, and Continuity.
