The research highlights key challenges and opportunities in reimagining waste management for multifamily residential buildings in New York City. The report addresses three critical areas: building design, building management, and neighborhood context, offering actionable recommendations and tools for improvement. These include the Waste Typology for visualizing waste systems, Waste Management Guidelines for building staff, and the Neighborhood Assets Tool for assessing local waste infrastructure. The colorful comic-style graphics at the report's end underscore the potential for transforming waste management. In my opinion, the report provides a valuable framework for advancing New York City's waste system. By integrating these recommendations and tools, officials and stakeholders can drive meaningful progress toward a more efficient, cleaner, and community-focused circular waste system.
