CNT Celebrates 30 Years of Sustainability

CNT was founded in 1978 as a center of innovation for the redevelopment of Chicago’s low- and moderate income communities. We started out as a small storefront operation with tomatoes growing in the windows and a goal to invent strategies that can turn community problems into assets. We’ve since grown to a national “think-and-do” tank that is leading the movement toward urban sustainability, with programs focusing on resource efficiency, transportation, job creation, and environmental quality.

CNT brings a unique perspective and three decades of experience to growing concerns about the environment. Our work is demonstrating that cities can be the solution to the challenge of climate change and economic inequality because of their inherent, yet often hidden, assets of density and social networks. And these solutions, if well crafted, can also reduce the cost of living.

Join us in celebrating our first 30 years of urban sustainability innovations at our 30th Anniversary Celebration on September 17th at the Garfield Park Conservatory.
