CITYSCAPE 2005 AWARDS Today, new investment and new attention are focusing on cites such as Dubai, Beijing, and Istanbul, as well as on the established modern metropolises (New York, London, Paris). The recent announcement of the Cityscape 2005 Architectural Review Awards exemplifies this new focus.

Central themes included the effort to link community revitalization to historic preservation, issues of race and historic preservation, and sustainable design.
