YOUNG VIC RENEWAL
    by Terri Peters
    http://www.ArchitectureWeek.com/today.html
    http://www.ArchitectureWeek.com/2008/0709/design_1-1.html

	The redesigned Young Vic Theatre by London architects
	Haworth Tompkins is more than just the extension and
	renovation of a local theater in Lambeth, South London.
	It is a radical, minimally designed new facility that
	celebrates the history of the place and highlights the
	ambitions of the local arts community.

	Shortlisted for the prestigious RIBA Stirling Prize in
	2007, the £12.5 million rebuild and expansion keeps much
	of the rough, industrial aesthetic so loved in the
	original building, but enhances and enlarges the
	theater, blurring the lines between front and back of
	house, and maintaining the informal relationships
	between performer and audience.

	The concept is a collage of old and new, with flexible,
	multiuse designs for workshops, theaters, studios,
	offices, and public spaces, carefully arranged on this
	tight, unapologetically urban site.

	Located on The Cut - the same street as its more formal
	and grown-up counterpart, the Old Vic - the Young Vic
	was conceived of as an experimental venue. Now
	independent, it was founded as an offshoot of the Royal
	National Theatre in 1970 to give younger actors and
	directors the opportunity to develop and perform in
	up-and-coming productions, often aimed at younger
	audiences.

Great Public Markets
    by Helen Tangires
    http://www.ArchitectureWeek.com/2008/0709/culture_1-1.html

	The activity of buying and selling food has shaped our
	cities and towns for centuries, since an urban
	population by nature depends on others for agricultural
	production. At the heart of this activity stands the
	public market - the buildings and spaces in which
	vegetables, meat, and other commodities intended for
	human consumption are sold by diverse persons from
	numerous spaces or stalls, all under a common authority.

	** ArchitectureWeek is a low-carbon-footprint publication.  
	By publishing this professional design and building magazine 
	online-only, we save about 48 tons of paper monthly, 50 large 
	trees every week, or 2500 trees (a dozen or more acres of 
	mature conifer forest) each year, compared to reaching a 
	similar readership on paper - not counting these newsletters!  
	We provide ongoing pro-bono services to local non-profit 
	sustainability organizations.  And our company offices are
	powered by a green mix of 98% wind energy and 2% solar power
	through our local electric utilities.
