Keith Engel joins the 2025 Cohort of Big Swings Fellows

Congratulations to Keith Engel, Associate Principal at Dattner Architects, on being named a 2025 Big Swings Fellow by the Urban Design Forum.

Keith brings deep experience in affordable and supportive housing, and a strong belief in architecture as a tool for equity. His work shapes inclusive communities across New York City and beyond.

The Big Swings Fellowship brings together a cohort of interdisciplinary urban leaders dedicated to advancing bold, equitable solutions to the global housing crisis.
