High praise for New Urbanism village architecture (alas, no mention of the architect!). -- Old Hollywood Bowl revamped and reinvigorated. -- New Miami high rise out of scale and out of sync (original HOK design had the right idea; credit for new design hard to track). -- A new San Diego-like Gas Lamp District planned for Phoenix. -- Trees are to cities what walls are to buildings. -- Awards for developers and builders who save trees. -- Hadid gets her Pritzker in Moscow - and a juicy new project to boot. -- Noguchi Museum renovation makes it friendlier. -- Will Portland architects come to the party? -- French port town takes Charles Rennie Mackintosh to heart (in hopes for tourists). -- Atlas of world architecture "isn't a coffee-table book… It's a coffee table waiting for its legs to be attached." -- Calling architectural technicians: lots of opportunity in Scotland. -- Quite a mix in Canada's Governor General's Medals in Architecture. -- New architecture award for budding urban design stars. -- New CEO for CABE. -- International photography call for entries. -- MoMA and the mob and "Yoshio Taniguchi, who has left nothing of Philip Johnson's work and very little of Cesar Pelli's."
