Governments at all levels spend billions of dollars each year on major capital projects, yet there is a lack of architects in government who oversee and ensure these projects are built to the highest standards. Civic projects often occur once in a lifetime and need to be built to last as they are for the people and represent the best of civilization. Through a diverse panel discussion, we will present the many roles the Architect in government can play, whether it be project manager, review boards, designers, and/or functioning in the official role of city architect.
