As you may have noticed, about a month ago we gave gbNYC a major facelift. We’re still working out some kinks and playing with the format, but we hope you’re finding it more user-friendly so far. One of our new features that we’re excited to introduce for the first time in connection with the new-look site is a weekly audiocast. We’ve recorded the first three episodes, which you can access after the jump, and hope to present a new episode weekly moving forward. The goal of the audiocast is to increase the depth and scope of content that gbNYC brings to you, allowing us to dig a bit deeper into important green building issues. In each episode, we’ll discuss posts from the previous week in more detail, as well as present other green issues that we’ve yet to delve into on the site.

Managing Risk in Sustainable Building Conference Set for February 7-8 in Chicago
In its 2006 Green Building White Paper, Building Design + Construction magazine called upon the legal profession to examine the potential liability issues that could arise from green standards. It asked the American Bar Association or a leading law school to lead the charge and critically analyze the legal implications that green building regulations might implicate. As far as I can tell, the first conference that will begin to dig into these issues is taking place next week in Chicago. Sponsored by the Alberti Group, it’s not too late to register for Managing Risk in Sustainable Building: Policy, Performance & Pitfalls.
