Trojan House by Jackson Clements Burrows in Melbourne

Trojan House designed by Melbourne based architect Jackson Clements Burrow and situated in Hawthorn, Melbourne. The initial idea was to challenge the conventional ‘box on the back’ type addition with a sculptural form born of site restraints such as the ResCode setbacks along the south boundary, the ideal internal programmatic arrangement, the desire to maintain as much back yard as possible and inspired by the rooftop topography of hips and valleys of the existing Edwardian house.

The construction technique for the addition involves a cost efficient waterproof fibre cement cladding system with timber battens and rainscreen over. The large cantilever is achieved through the construction of two large steel trusses which are embedded in the walls. The existing house incorporates a reworked master bedroom/ensuite configuration and other minor cosmetic/maintenance works. More information visit Jackson Clements Burrows website.

Walt Disney Concert Hall

The Walt Disney Concert Hall at 111 South Grand Avenue in Downtown Los Angeles, California is the fourth hall of the Los Angeles Music Center. Bounded by Hope Street, Grand Avenue, 1st and 2nd Streets, it seats 2,265 people and serves (among other purposes) as the home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic orchestra and the Los Angeles Master Chorale.
Lillian Disney made an initial gift in 1987 to build a performance venue as a gift to the people of Los Angeles and a tribute to Walt Disney's devotion to the arts and to the city. The Frank Gehry-designed building opened on October 23, 2003. Both the architecture by Frank Gehry and the acoustics of the concert hall (designed by Yasuhisa Toyota) were praised in contrast to its predecessor, the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.

The project was launched in 1992, when Lillian Disney, widow of Walt Disney, donated $50 million. Frank Gehry delivered completed designs in 1991. Construction of the underground parking garage began in 1992 and was completed in 1996. The garage cost had been $110 million, and was paid for by Los Angeles County, which sold bonds to provide the garage under the site of the planned hall. Construction of the concert hall itself stalled from 1994 to 1996 due to lack of fundraising. Additional funds were required since the construction cost of the final project far exceeded the original budget. Plans were revised, and in a cost saving move the originally designed stone exterior was replaced with a less costly metal skin. The needed fundraising restarted in earnest in 1996—after the real estate depression passed—headed up by Eli Broad and then-mayor Richard Riordan and groundbreaking for the hall was held in December 1999. Delay in the project completion caused many financial problems for the county of LA. The city expected to repay the garage debts by revenue coming from the Disney Hall parking users.

Upon completion in 2003, the project had cost an estimated $274 million, including the parking garage which had solely cost $110 million.The remainder of the total cost was paid by private donations, of which the Disney family's contribution was estimated to $84.5 million with another $25 million from The Walt Disney Company. By comparison, the three existing halls of the Music Center cost $35 million in the 1960s (about $190 million in today's dollars).

The Chicago Spire

The Chicago Spire is an uncompleted, now-defunct skyscraper project in Chicago, Illinois. After several years of on-going financing challenges, including the recession that began in 2008, construction was halted. Anglo Irish Bank Corp., filing a $77 million foreclosure lawsuit against The Spire's Irish developer Garrett Kelleher, claims that loans made to Kelleher’s development company, have been in default for a year. The bank was expected to take possession of the site where the Spire was to be built.
The building was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava and was being developed by St Patrick's Athletic owner Garrett Kelleher of Shelbourne Development Group, Inc. At 2,000 feet (610 m) and with 150 floors, it would be among the world's tallest buildings and freestanding structures, and the tallest building in the United States and the Western Hemisphere. Originally proposed by Christopher T. Carley of the Fordham Company in 2005, the project was supported by many Chicagoans and city officials.


After several months of development in 2005, Carley failed to acquire necessary financing and the project was taken over by Garrett Kelleher of the Shelbourne Development Group in 2006. Since that time, three revisions were made to the design and the renamed project gained city approval. But following the start of the late-2000s recession, and its impact on the primary lender for the project, construction was suspended at the site. Amid several unsuccessful attempts with labor union investment funds to bail out the project, Shelbourne Development continued its attempt to secure additional financing and restart construction and insisted that the project is not dead.

By the end of 2010 legal actions by Anglo Irish Bank caused the courts to hand control of the site to a receiver, leaving the project dead.
