In a special summer UrbanPlan Scholars program, four teams presented their proposals for a six-acre parcel next to UH West Oahu. They had to address zoning requirements, affordable housing/workforce housing, rail/transit issues, agriculture, and energy.
UrbanPlan is a global competition run by the international Urban Land Institute. Hawaii schools have taken top honors in the global competition two years in a row, including Iolani School last month, and Iolani and Kalani two years ago.
Teams were made up of local high school students from Iolani, Kalani, LeJardin, MidPac, Punahou, and St. Andrews.
They conducted outreach to stakeholders and residents in West Oahu and found affordable housing to be the number one community need.
Ideas ranged from rooftop greenhouses and beekeeping to fully solar-powered facilities to integrating UHWO student and campus life.
Judges included Bob Harrison (FHB), Duff Janus (ASB), Brennon Morioka (UH), Mike Gabbard (Senate), Jim Houchens (Mitre), and Alana Kobayashi.
Bernice Glenn Bowers helped them plan for future high-tech industry in the area, doubled the size of the cash prize to $1,500.
Pelham Ridge Elementary School was designed by Goodwyn Mills Cawood. Pelham Ridge Elementary is the first new construction school designed for the newly-formed Pelham City School Board. The new elementary school is a two-story brick and stone building with wood elements, which reflects the desired character and materiality of the existing schools in the district. Pelham Ridge incorporates a variety of learning environments in addition to the typical classroom. These supplemental learning spaces include two “break-out” learning spaces, a flexible classroom, and two courtyards. Two of the classroom wings adjacent to the courtyards are designed to function as storm shelters and meet the Alabama Building Commission’s state standard for storm shelters, ICC 500.

Grand Coulee, Washington
Completed 1934-1941
The massive Grand Coulee Dam, on the Columbia River, is the largest concrete structure in the U.S., the largest hydroelectric facility in the U.S., and the fourth-largest hydroelectric facility in the world. It provides irrigation for up to 1.1 million acres of agricultural lands and the hydroelectric complex maintains a generating capacity of 6.48 million kilowatts. It also serves as the primary flood control for the Columbia River basin (with a capacity of 5.18 million acre-feet of water) and provides recreational opportunities on the 150-mile-long Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake. It is the uppermost of 11 dams that comprise the Columbia River Basin Project.
Grand Coulee Dam was critical to the war efforts during World War II, generating abundant electrical power that was crucial for aluminum production for war machinery.

Paris, France
Completed 1889
"Are we to believe that because one is an engineer, one is not preoccupied by beauty in one's constructions, or that one does not seek to create elegance as well as solidity and durability?"
- Gustav Eiffel, February 14, 1887
The Eiffel Tower was built for the International Exhibition of Paris of 1889 commemorating the centenary of the French Revolution. Of the 700 proposals submitted in a design competition, Gustave Eiffel's was unanimously chosen. At 300 meters and 7,000 tons, it was the world's tallest building until 1930.
The elevators ascend and descend within the curved legs of the tower, starting at an angle of 54 degrees from horizontal at the base and leveling out to 78 degrees at the top. The elevator cars are built with seatbacks that rotate to adjust to the varying angle.
A total of 18,038 individual pieces of cast iron were used to build the Eiffel Tower. Elements were bolted together in roughly 5-foot lengths at Eiffel's fabrication shop and then transported to the site. There, the bolts were removed and the segments permanently riveted together, using a total of 2,500,000 rivets.
