Teams Wanted for the “City of Tomorrow”
The History Channel is launching its second annual architecture/engineer “Cities
of the Future” design challenge with another design competition. “The
City of the Future: Cities of the UnderWorld” will be held in
three cities—San Francisco, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C.—and
is open to architectural design teams nationwide. Partnering with the
AIA, The History Channel, Infiniti, and IBM, are conducting an open
search for 12 teams (4 in each region), to imagine the future of some
of the country's most important cities. The selected teams will compete
alongside a slate of nationally recognized designers. This year, the
competitions will be hosted in the three host cities between January
14 and January 30, 2008. To be considered for participation, follow
the submission guidelines on the
competition Web site. All submissions
must be received by 3 p.m. ET on November 9.
