Totaling $200,000 in prizes, the annual award will celebrate two people following her example to make New York City a more vibrant, livable place. One award recognizes leadership and lifetime contribution, the other honors new ideas and activism. Nominations will be accepted online through March 2; recipients will be announced in June.
