AN November/December 2026

AN’s November/December issue takes a look at the issues affecting cities today. Our writers traveled to Nashville for an assessment of its building boom; to Los Angeles, where the rebuilding of Altadena is in full swing following the tragic 2025 fires; to Houston, where the fate of the Astrodome is being determined; and to New York City, where the Department of Design and Construction celebrates 30 years. The Focus section on sustainability covers healthy materials, noteworthy case studies, and exciting products. Plus, the issue packs in more news, reviews, and recommended events.
