While in Hamburg, AIA Europe did not have a chance to see the HafenCity Subway Station as Architect Magazine did. AIA Europe members might be more familiar with HafenCity because we were there. Don't miss the chance for the same with Lyon, Düsseldorf, London, Paris, &c.

The Elbphilharmonie, by architects Herzog & de Meuron, is not just the centerpiece of HafenCity but really the centerpiece of the AIA Europe conference Hamburg | Hafen-on-Elbe as well. Any registrants from this date until early next week will note two things: 1) we might have a few spaces available still for the Elbphilharmonie tour and 2) our registration rate of €300 for members remains the same!

From the Chapter to Eric Wills at Architect Magazine we offer thanks for his expanded post: "AIA Europe Conference to Spotlight Hamburg’s HafenCity Development." One minor note, which everyone familiar with AIA Europe conferences may have already spotted: AIA Continental Europe chapter conferences are biannual. Hamburg is followed by Lyon and Düsseldorf in spring/autumn 2013, respectively; Paris and an not-yet-named location follow in 2014.

Members are encouraged to register for the upcoming Hamburg conference not just for the architecture & urbanism, nor to just greet the many new sponsors of the chapter (who are doing amazing things in façades and glass*), but also to help the Chapter fulfill the required Annual Chapter Meeting. The meeting is Sunday, 21 October and is always interesting. The biggest order of business is the discussion of upcoming conferences. Allow your presence and voice to count!

AIA Europe was one of many websites affected Monday by the alleged attack on GoDaddy. While not hosted on GoDaddy servers, aiaeurope.org was affected as GoDaddy is the Chapter's domain registrar. AIA Middle East was also affected by the outage. In light of this, early registration for the Hamburg | Hafen-on-Elbe will be extended one week.

Attending any AIA Europe conference has brought attendees close to a number of great projects over the years: Hamburg | Hafen-on-Elbe will be no exception with the chance to tour the construction site for the Elbphilharmonie by Herzog & de Meuron, seen here beyond HafenCity.
