December often serves as a time to reflect on the year that’s just gone by. As the holidays set in, semesters come to a close, and a a flood of superlatives and year-in-review articles take shape, the blustery days of winter force a certain sort of quietude for an otherwise busy and bustling year. December 2019 was a month filled with the AIA’s top awards for the year as well as a flurry of news, especially on the legal front, where lawsuits, ballot initiatives, and court settlements blocked, paved the way, or complicated the future of a handful of high profile projects. In addition, Archinect’s Spotlight on Austin highlighted some of the most interesting projects, firms, and educational initiatives taking shape in the Texas capital.
