Jeanne Gang has been named the recipient of the 2022 ULI Prize for Visionaries in Urban Development, the most prestigious and respected honor in the real estate, land use, and development community. The award recognizes an individual who has made distinguished contributions to community building globally, who has established visionary standards of excellence in the land use and development field, and whose commitment to creating the highest-quality built environment has led to the betterment of society.
“Jeanne’s artistry and creativity have established her as one of the most influential architects of her generation,” said Ed Walter, ULI’s global CEO. “From museums and skyscrapers to mixed-use developments and learning environments, Jeanne has produced buildings and places that push boundaries and reach new frontiers in sustainable reuse, ecological biodiversity, and social equity.”
“I am honored to be recognized by ULI, whose effort to foster collaboration across real estate and land use disciplines are critical for shaping more resilient and equitable futures for our cities,” said Jeanne. “I hope this award will inspire even more developers, architects, planners, and policy makers to come together to realize places that can both uplift communities and support our planet’s greater network of living things.”
As the Prize laureate, Jeanne will be a featured speaker at the 2022 ULI Fall Meeting in Dallas on October 25 at the concurrent session from 2:30 – 3:30 p.m. Central.
