It is hot and very humid. The architectural competition has begun. Sweden has the chance to win a spectacular site - a peninsula surrounded by the Potomac and Rock Creek. The National Swedish Property Board, with Jan Thews as its representative, has a clear goal. The city plan allows a certain volume and that has to be exploited to make the project financially reasonable. There is one drawback with this site, however - it floods regularly. archdaily.com Posted: 01/09/2009 digg | del.icio.us | stumble | email this
