Starchitects Invited to New Orleans Waterfront...
November 7, 2006
The New Orleans Building Corporation, a public benefit corporation that owns, develops, and operates properties owned by the city, is turning to big-name architects to help develop a stretch of the city’s riverfront.
On November 3 the group announced five finalist teams made up of architects, urban planners, landscape architects, engineers, and consultants. Architects on the teams include Zaha Hadid with Baton Rouge-based Trahan Architects; New York–based Reiser + Umemoto with New Orleans–based Studio Matrixx; Frank Gehry, FAIA; Mexican firm TEN Arquitectos with New Orleans–based Eskew+Dumez+Ripple; and Studio Daniel Libeskind with New Orleans–based Mathes Brieere Architects.

what?!!! no Mo-fO? at least R+U has a chance...
studio matrixx: with the possibility of national exposure, may i humbly suggest a name change? may sound fun and cool now (maybe...no, not really), but it's gonna become a liability i predict.
