Earth Day

Brookfield Place is committed to investing in sustainability efforts that enhance our downtown community. Learn how we achieve this all year round across our campus.

At Hudson Eats

Composting

Every day, Hudson Eats diners have the option to dispose their left-over food and other compostable materials at the designated compost bins in the dining terrace.

Liquid Bins

Did you know any bottle or container filled with liquid will not be recycled properly and the vessel will end up in a landfill?

Brookfield Place makes it easy to recycle properly by providing our guests with liquid-only disposal bins! Take the extra step to ensure you're making a positive change.

Recycling

Be sure to recycle the following items in our bins:

  • Aluminum cans 
  • Foil 
  • Paper & cardboard items 
  • Rigid plastic 
  • Glass jars and bottles

Do NOT recycle: Soft plastics, coated paper products, bubble wrap, Styrofoam

  • Reduces landfill waste and creates nutrient-rich soil
  • Lowers your carbon footprint, offsetting climate change

What can be composted?

Food scraps, soiled paper (ie. napkins/paper towels), and other organic matter!

On Our Rooftops

In partnership with Alevole, Brookfield Place makes sustainability sweeter by housing ten beehives on our building rooftops!

Why do urban beehives matter?

Even though bees are small creatures known as pollinators, they make a large impact on the environment.

Plus, our bees produce an ultra-local honey harvest our downtown community to enjoy – be sure to look out for future honey collaborations with our retailers and restaurants!

Billion Oyster Project

What’s better than happy hour? Knowing that you’re giving back to our earth at the same time! 

Brookfield Place restaurants, PJ Clarke’s and Seamore’s, are proud participants in Billion Oyster Project, a program dedicated to repopulating oysters in NY harbor through shell collection.

Visit Our Restaurants
Did you know that it took less than 100 Years for New Yorkers to wipe out the oyster population in NY Harbor?

Why Do Oysters Matter?

Oyster reefs provide a sturdy, intricate habitat for hundreds of marine species, naturally filter the water, and help shield shorelines from storm damage.

Successful restoration of our oyster reefs and their ecological functions will revitalize local biodiversity, prepare a generation of environmental stewards, and build a more resilient Harbor to meet a changing climate.

In Our Public Spaces

Brookfield invests in our outdoor spaces by planting seasonal flowers.

Be sure to find a quiet spot on a bench around the Oval Lawn to take-in our beautiful blooms.
