America's Favorite Architecture
Mississippi Celebrates Architecture can be seen in conjunction with America's Favorite Architecture, a national traveling exhibit presented by the American Institute of Architects.
The projects featured in the America's Favorite Architecture exhibit were chosen in a public poll conducted by the American Institute of Architects and Harris Interactive on the occasion of the AIA's 150th anniversary. The 150 works of architecture--buildings, bridges, monuments, and memorials--in this exhibition represent some of the best of America's architectural heritage. When people are asked to select their favorites, they choose buildings and designs that symbolize innovation and the spirit of the country and community. Perhaps more important, they choose structures that hold a place in their hearts and minds.
If you do not have the opportunity to visit the exhibit in person, you can go online for an electronic version. Choose your favorite five projects and see how they compare to the top five chosen by the public on the Web!
