In october 2009 archiVIAS began posting the world's most interesting contemporary architecture, adressed in maps, and linked to architecture critics and further information.
As a one year anniversary celebration, I have traveled to MIAMI, CHICAGO and NEW YORK to bring you the best and newest of contemporary architecture in these cities.
I used the blog to build my own itinerary and I can tell you it really helped!
I hope you enjoy seeing my impressions captured with the camera as much as I did personally!
