In the Trenches with BIM (http://www.aecbytes.com/viewpoint/issue_7.htm) by our very own James Van ( ... AECbytes Viewpoint #7 )
makes interesting reading on future BIM trends from the perspective of SOM and their high profile projects such as Freedom Tower.
Stephen Kieran and James Timberlake promote the idea of Architects returning to the role of "master controllers" rather than "master builders;" however, I feel that "master coordinator" fits best in the BIM domain. We see building information modeling as an overall approach to the design and construction of this monumental project, not just the use of the latest software.
