Project Rebirth Is Web Site of the Week

Designed by IconNicholson, Web site pushes interactive techniques and technology to bring reconstruction progress to the public

NEW YORK, Dec. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- The Project Rebirth Web site (http://www.projectrebirth.org/) is being recognized by Communication Arts, the leading journal for visual communications, as Site of the Week December 20 - January 2 at http://www.designinteract.com/. Project Rebirth and its Web site, developed by IconNicholson, continue to gain recognition for their monumental effort to provide the public easy access to the World Trade Center site reconstruction.

The Web site is one of its kind, using the latest rich media technology and advanced techniques to create a rich and seamless user experience of video and other materials in a highly engaging timeline format. The unprecedented effort to record the rebuilding over ten years required an equally innovative and powerful Web solution.

IconNicholson is proud to partner with Project Rebirth and continues to support their singular effort. IconNicholson encourages everyone to visit the Web site, view live footage and other materials about the historic reconstruction, and learn about Project Rebirth.

"This project inspired us to push new frontiers in Web development," says Robert Fisher, Creative Director at IconNicholson. "It was an amazing collaboration among creative forces and we feel privileged for the opportunity. Being Communication Arts' Site of Week is a great holiday gift to the team."
