Last Week to Submit for CAC's Next Stop: BRT Stations Competition

Noon Monday, May 13th, is the deadline for entering submissions to the Chicago Architectural Club for its 2013 Burnham Prize Competition,  Next Stop: Designing Chicago BRT Stations.  First prize $3,000, second $1,500, third $750.
This is a single-stage international design ideas competition intended to catalyze iconic, sustainable, and functional design for representative corridors in Chicago’s planned Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system.

NEXT STOP seeks to integrate innovative and compelling transportation design into Chicago’s urban fabric. Importantly, NEXT STOP seeks proposals that realize BRT as a system of solutions: each design team must submit designs for three different prototype sites and demonstrate how BRT station design can be adapted to each context.
