On June 25th JWA contributed to the 'Anatomy of Civil Engineering', as part of the London Festival of Architecture. This event was held at the Institution of Civil Engineers and featured a mobile composed of infrastructure models, suspended from the atrium of One Great George Street. The Xstrata Treetop Walkway at Kew, and a new pedestrian link to Rainham Marshes were included.
On 7 June JWA went on a cruise on a narrowboat, the Jenny Wren, with a group of the practice’s friends, to celebrate the handing over of Jane’s sole share in the company to a trust fund company that will own JWA for the benefit of all its employees, past and present. A condition of the handover is that JWA will continue to avoid all projects that contain a nuclear or military component. We are very fortunate that Jenny Baster and Robin Nicholson have agreed to be trustees, along with Jane. More here from 'Building' magazine. See the slideshow below for photos of the boat trip and the signing of the deed.
