Why architects must balance speed and patience
Gregory Haley is an associate principal at Henning Larsen, the Danish architecture practice known for civic buildings and urban districts, working from its New York studio. He practices at both the building and the city scale. His concern is time: how a profession that takes years to make anything holds its ground in a culture of instant feedback.

In this conversation
Gregory's phrase for his firm's approach: architecture practiced urbanistically and urbanism practiced architecturally.
How local partners, including a First Nation group on a Toronto project, make districts resonate with the history of their place.
Why sustainability can no longer be told as a heroic singular narrative, and how it connects to inequity and the growth of cities.
His advice to young designers presenting public work: a massing model plus a few assumptions can balance carbon early, and a conversation beats a lecture.
We practice architecture urbanistically and urbanism architecturally.

Gregory practices architecture urbanistically because a building is a contribution to a city. The cities are still growing.

Takeaways
Large projects take time, and so does understanding a site, a culture and the right consultants. The tension between the instant and the enduring is the designer's job to negotiate.
Copenhagen makes bigger jumps in sustainability not because its architects are braver but because market, culture and regulation point the same way.
Talk with the room, not at it. Relax, engage the audience in dialogue, and distill the four or five words you must land.
You're not just talking at them, you're talking with them.
