Today's News - December 30, 2003

Editor's note: We'll be dusting off our party hats tomorrow…this is the final newsletter of 2003 -- and what a year it's been! We hope you've found our daily missives interesting and informative along with a bit of inspiration and even amusement (lest we take ourselves too seriously). ANN will be back in your mailboxes bright and early (New York time) on Monday, January 5th. Here's to a wondrous New Year for us all! -- Kristen Richards

Putting the Freedom Tower process into perspective. -- The structural engineer combines art and geometry "never imagined he would help create the spire that would replace the towers." -- The "D-word" (as in density): it's time to deal with it. -- Liverpool's new identity. -- An industrial district sparks another urban renaissance in Portland. -- The city planner who helped Milwaukee define its identity (now he's taking on Denver). -- Reviving Cuba's National Art Schools not an easy (or even promising) task. -- A treasure saved: "Whatever the fate of architecture at auction, the intensely emotional campaign to save the Farnsworth House has achieved something Mies could not. It has brought modernism in from the cold." -- The year in review - from all over (there will surely be more). -- New guide to Miami architecture with hopes that "a public better attuned to design will demand better new buildings and support preservation of the city's architectural legacy." -- A 32-foot-long panorama of Manhattan on view. -- Hillier Foundation grant to build library's architecture collection.
