Announcing the 2015 Charter Award Winners | Congress for the New Urbanism

Announcing the 2015 Charter Award Winners

On Thursday, the Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU) unveiled the winners of the 14th annual Charter Awards, which celebrate the year’s greatest accomplishments in architectural, landscape, urban, and regional design. The eleven winners and ten runners-up, ranging from Richmond, Virginia to Luhe, Jiangsu Province, China, were unveiled in Dallas, Texas, as part of CNU’s 23rd annual Congress, a four-day conference exploring walkable development and sustainable cities. 

The 2015 Grand Prize went to Iberville Offsites, a New Orleans–based affordable housing project led by Kronberg Wall Architects that restored 46 historic houses as affordable units using environmentally friendly technology and building practices. This year’s Grand Prize for Student Work was awarded to the University of Notre Dame for “Cities of a New Port Metropolis,” a study reimagining Central American port cities as integrated commercial hubs.

“This year’s winners truly embody CNU’s mission to design, build, and restore great places,” said Lynn Richards, President and CEO of CNU. “The organizations, leaders, and individuals behind these projects have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to creating places that are more attainable, economically productive, and livable for everyone.”

The award ceremony began with a keynote speech by Washington, DC–based architect David M. Schwartz, who earlier this year was awarded the Richard H. Driehaus lifetime prize for traditional and classical architecture. Charter Awards Jury Chair and CNU co-founder Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk led the proceedings, introducing and congratulating the award-winning architects, designers, and elected officials.

“This year’s awards highlight the many ways that urban design and architecture enrich people’s lives in a wide range of settings,” said Plater-Zyberk.

As in past years, the winning projects for 2015 represented three geographic scales laid out in the Charter for the New Urbanism—“metropolis, city, & town”; “neighborhood, corridor, & district”; and “block, street, and building.” The work included a tactical urbanist intervention in Texas, two rehabilitated inner-city housing projects, and a new plaza entrance for a historic London cricket ground.

The Charter Awards are given annually to honor outstanding achievement in design and planning by the nonprofit Congress for the New Urbanism, or CNU, a national group devoted to building walkable, sustainable neighborhoods. With more than 2,600 members working in communities across North America—from urban centers to historic small towns—CNU connects and empowers the professionals, leaders, advocates, and citizens creating places people love.
