Since launching Rebuilding America's Infrastructure magazine in April 2009, we (the editors) have paid close attention to your comments and clicks on this website. By doing so, we've learned a lot about the types of stories you appreciate most. We've learned that while news stories about the stimulus package are prevalent, you often prefer stories that take a longer view. We've learned that although articles about tried-and-true methods are important, new ideas always deserve consideration. We've learned that the essence of "rebuilding" is often about admiring the structures we built generations ago. The following is a list of the news stories, magazine stories, online exclusive, videos, and photos that were viewed the most on the website this year:
