Abstract
The Amagerforbraending waste-to-energy plant designed by Bjarke Ingels Group, the BEI-Stockton scheme by Heatherwick Studio, and Ennead's work on the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, are examples of a new brand of urban monument. Using Sert, Gidieon, and Léger's 1943 manifesto “Nine Points of Monumentality” as a starting point, the author examines these projects and their images to track the collective values they symbolize.
