It can move from a fertilized egg to a spat, which is when they're floating through the water, and when they're ready to attach onto another oyster, to an adult male oyster or female oyster, in a number of weeks.

Oyster Creek is a city in Brazoria County, Texas, United States.

So the oyster was the basis for a manifesto like urban design project that I did about the New York Harbor called oyster tecture.

And already, commercial oyster larvae are dying at large scales in some places.

Architect Kate Orff sees the oyster as an agent of urban change. Bundled into beds and sunk into city rivers, oysters slurp up pollution and make legendarily dirty waters clean thus driving even more innovation in oyster tecture. Orff shares her vision for an urban landscape that links nature and humanity for mutual benefit.

And finally, how much fun it would be to watch the flupsy parade and cheer on the oyster spats as they go down to the reef.

Compared to the body of an oyster, for example, chimpanzees and humans are at least 99 identical bone for bone, muscle for muscle, nerve for nerve, organ for organ.

And the core idea of oyster tecture is to harness the biological power of mussels, eelgrass and oysters species that live in the harbor and, at the same time, harness the power of people who live in the community towards making change now.

We reinterpreted this life cycle on the scale of our sight and took the Gowanus as a giant oyster nursery where oysters would be grown up in the Gowanus, then paraded down in their spat stage and seeded out on the Bayridge Reef.
