Welcome

The partnership of AIA Newark and Suburban, Emerging Professionals and the Young Architects Forum invites designers from around the globe to find innovative, visionary and compelling proposals for Newark, New Jersey’s Visitors Center.
The competition is entirely presented and managed via the website, www.visitnewarknj.org; NVC is an international design competition focused on enhancing the progress of future endeavors in Newark, NJ while celebrating it's fascinating past. Currently, there is no method for way-finding or a comprehensive historical center for this revitalized city continuously on the rise. All of the most significant cities in America include some sort of visitor's hub that welcomes and funnels countless people through to their restaurants, civic marvels, and cultural/community events. This structure would surely facilitate further progress and highlight all of Newark’s hidden gems and main attractions alike. Moreover, the space shall boast an eclectic, sustainable program, becoming its very own destination spot.

It is our esteemed pleasure to announce our celebrity juror and honorary chair
Richard Meier, FAIA, FRIBA
