    ...sometimes "innovative thinking" alone, without respect to budget, or a solution responsive to President Eisenhower, the community, or the paying public is worth taking a stand on...

    Sometime juries are wrong.

    Sometimes the AIA is wrong.

    Isn't that the entire purpose of the AIA Repositioning?  Reflection!

    For what its worth, this opinion does not speak for me!

    The part of the article that struck me is: "...millions of federal dollars have already been spent in choosing an architect and hiring Gehry." Is the AIA really supporting a selection process that results in a multi-million dollar schematic design fee for a starchitect?

    Hi Sean,

    Let's take a look at who is not supporting the design. Christine Franck just finished compiling 71 negative reviews of the process, scope, budget and design of Frank Gehry's Eisenhower Museum. It definitely worth a look to see the depth of the concerns. : http://www.civicart.org/issues-eisenhower-criticism.html
