Best Cities For Design
Posted by: kmikeym | From: July 15, 2008
Brian Libby of the Portland Architecture blog posted about how Portland Ranked #5 In "Best Cities For Design" List. The list was compiled by RMJM Hillier, one of the world's largest architecture firms.
The rankings were based on ten criteria: public transit systems, LEED certified or registered buildings, art and design universities, museums, sustainability rankings, architecture awards, employees in creative industries, housing and community design awards, and buildings on the National Historic Register. MJMH then commissioned a public opinion and research firm to interview over 1000 residents of those cities on architecture and design issues and incorporated those results into the research to determine the final rankings.
