The AIA has selected the 2010 recipients of the Institute Honor Awards, the profession’s highest recognition of works that exemplify excellence in architecture, interior architecture and urban design. TKTS Booth and the Revitalization of Duffy Square received the Institute Honor Award for Architecture with the jury comment that “With its elegant conception and realization, its refined design stands up to the cacophony of Times Square; this is as much a 21st Century art piece as a building,” said the jury.
The Renovation of Father Duffy Square/TKTS project won the internationally prestigious World New & Old Building of the Year. For more information on the award and the WAF, the biggest architectural award program in the world, please visit the site at http://www.worldarchitecturefestival.com/
