Two Georgia Tech student teams have received honorable mentions in the 2017 ULI Hines Student Competition. Please join us in congratulating the two teams!!!
North West Bond
Chicago Fit
The ULI Hines Student Competition—having just completed its 15th year—offers graduate students the opportunity to form their own multidisciplinary teams and engage in a challenging exercise in responsible land use.
Student teams comprising at least three disciplines have two weeks to devise a comprehensive design and development program for a real, large-scale site full of challenges and opportunities. Submissions will consist of boards that include drawings, site plans, tables, and market-feasible financial data.
11 multi-disciplinary teams from Georgia Tech submitted variously-anchored mixed-use development proposals for a former industrial site on the North Branch of the Chicago River. The 11 submissions are on display as part of the HINES ULI COMPETITION ENTRIES 2017 EXHIBITION until March 11th in the Cohen Gallery aka The Bridge between Arch East and Arch West.
