This year’s jury was comprised of principals of leading national firms based in Chicago: Joe Valerio, FAIA from Valerio Dewalt Train Associates; Diane Legge Kempt, FAIA, ASLA – DLK Architecture; and John Ronan, AIA, John Ronan Architecture. Valerio shared his perspective on the post-Katrina architectural environment: “It’s possible that stress leads to great work. Just as the fire in Chicago — which destroyed most of the city — led to great architecture, it seems that the storm here is now resulting in innovative work that will lead what’s happening in the rest of the country.”
