| AIA College of Fellows awards 2009 Latrobe Prize The American Institute of Architects (AIA) College of Fellows has awarded its 2009 Latrobe Prize of $100,000 for the proposal, "Growing Energy/Water: Using the grid to get off the grid." The study focuses on Chicago's 31st Street as a prototypical and generic infrastructural corridor that the City of Chicago has determined needs substantial improvements. College of Fellows Chancellor Don Hackl, FAIA, presented the award to principal investigators Martin Felsen, AIA, and Sarah Dunn, both of UrbanLab in Chicago, during the AIA Accent on Architecture Gala in early February 2009. The grant, named for architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe, is awarded biennially by the AIA College of Fellows for research leading to significant advances in the architecture profession. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
