The AIA and USA Today teemed up to come up with this list of the greatest architectural works of the 21st century.
"USA WEEKEND asked five top architectural experts to select the best constructions of this new century, those completed recently that will inspire for generations. These are places we frequent all the time: an office building, a courthouse, two museums and even a public transit project. The brilliant designs behind them breathe vibrancy into our daily lives... The five top buildings include: Rose Center; Quadracci Pavilion; O'Connor U.S. Courthouse; 3com Midwest Headquarters; and Westside Light Rail corridor."
