The future is calling. Let’s build it together. Save the date for #ASCE2027: The Infrastructure and Engineering Experience + learn more at experience.asce.org.

Designing truly inclusive infrastructure starts by listening to the people who will use it. As engineers, architects, and designers develop an accessible playground at Kansas City’s Roy Blunt Luminary Park, they’re drawing on lived experience to help shape a novel public space featuring adaptive play elements, interconnected ramps, and accessible surfaces. Get a sneak peek at the project on the #ASCESource: go.asce.org/4BtK4fx.

Why is it so important to advocate for infrastructure investment? Just ask the #ASCE members who have seen its impact firsthand… Create your own success story during @ASCEGovRel’s 2027 Legislative Fly-In!

Congratulations to ASCE’s 2026 Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement Award winner, Seattle Aquarium Ocean Pavilion! As the final piece of Seattle’s waterfront redevelopment vision, the Ocean Pavilion provides Seattle Aquarium visitors with an immersive marine life experience while improving accessibility between Pike Place Market and Puget Sound. The freeform building contains more than 500,000 gallons of water, features a 30-foot-wide viewing window that withstands pressure from more than 1.1 million gallons of water, and is designed to withstand a magnitude 9.0 earthquake. Learn more about what makes this imaginative project the best of the year + join us in congratulating this year’s award recipients: go.asce.org/4dFTWZf.

The #ASCE 2026 Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement award goes to Seattle Aquarium Ocean Pavilion! Congratulations to all who contributed to this exceptional project.

As severe weather events become more frequent and intense, infrastructure professionals and leaders face growing pressure to rebuild smarter, more resilient, and more sustainable systems. Ahead of moderating a vision and strategy session at #ASCE2027, @LACoPublicWorks Director Mark Pestrella joined a special edition of ASCE Interchange Live to discuss how resilience-focused rebuilding can reduce risk, strengthen communities, and accelerate recovery after disasters. Watch the full conversation on the #ASCESource, then register to attend ASCE2027: The Infrastructure and Engineering Experience in Philadelphia, March 1-5, 2027: go.asce.org/4s7tsWA.

More than 100 cyberattacks on U.S. water systems have been reported across seven states in recent months. As critical infrastructure becomes increasingly connected, experts say civil engineers must treat cybersecurity as a design requirement from the very beginning of a structure’s life cycle: go.asce.org/4Ba8g6l.

Today at an event in Chicago, @ASCETweets celebrated the iconic Route 66 as a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark cbsnews.com/chicago/news/rou…

The first municipally developed and owned hydroelectric plant in the United States began operation at the Cedar Falls Hydroelectric Project #OnThisDay in 1904, a pioneering effort that helped lay the foundation for the public power movement. Located in the Cedar River watershed in Washington's Cascade Mountains, the original project featured a rock-filled timber crib diversion dam, a three-mile-long wood stave penstock and two 78-inch steel penstocks carrying water to a wood-framed powerhouse, and two 2,000-hp Pelton impulse wheels that powered 1,200-kW three-phase AC generators. A 37-mile transmission line connected the facility to Seattle at 45 kV, the highest transmission voltage in the U.S. at the time. By January 1905, electricity from Cedar Falls was lighting downtown Seattle. The facility grew from an initial 2,400-kW capacity to a 30-MW operation by 1929 and was designated an ASCE National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark in 2000. Trace the Cedar Falls Hydroelectric Project back to its beginnings + read a firsthand account from the engineers who first surveyed the site in 1895—free on the #ASCELibrary now through Oct. 21: go.asce.org/4hO5c8w. #VisitASCELandmarks
