Mayor Norman Osborn announced the brilliant scientist behind the revival of his late wife’s research program — it happens to be none other than their young entrepreneurial son, Harry Osborn.

An idea once thought impractical, the program was a passion project of young Harry Osborn, who reportedly dedicated the past few years to proving out the potential of the rooftop labs. According to materials distributed by Oscorp, the rooftop labs were primed to assess city smog levels and monitor clean water systems, among other environmental factors. When the idea was presented to City Council, Harry’s project was not only awarded a generous grant, but became a centerpiece of his father’s citywide improvement initiative.

Environmental advocates anticipate positive change throughout New York City from the labs’ findings, with the hopes that the program becomes an example of the future of clean, sustainable city living
