Pei Cobb Freed & Partners has been recognized many times for the totality of its practice. The firm received the New York State AIA Firm Award in 2009; the Lifetime Achievement Award from the New York Society of Architects in 1992; and the Chicago Architecture Award, in recognition of “significant contributions to architecture and to the design of urban environments,” in 1985. The Poses Creative Arts Award, which honors a distinguished body of work and leadership in the development of an art form, was bestowed upon the firm in 1981, in recognition of its “architectural innovation and excellence, having enriched the American landscape with some of its most graceful and aesthetically satisfying works of architectural art.”[1][2] In 1968 the American Institute of Architects conferred on the practice its Architectural Firm Award, citing the “eminently successful collaboration among the partners, associates and staff . . . which has resulted in years of consistently distinguished design.”
