AIA's Architecture Billings Index Indicates an Industry Stumble, Drops Below 50 Once Again

Apparently, in the current economic climate, short lived are the days of growth in the architecture industry. After months of staying relatively flat, but still, thankfully, above the 50 mark (anything 50 or above indicates a general uptick in business), the AIA‘s monthly Architecture Billings Index has been released and it has dropped nearly three full points, down to 47.6, meaning the burdens of the economy are still very much affecting the business of building.
