| This morning we snapped work at the Cambridge Discovery Park site that Bulfinch has been developing for offices.

The new project index of 56.5 was down sharply from 61.6 in December. A leading indicator of construction, architectural billings are usually nine to 12 months ahead of construction spending. For the January Index, the Midwest led with a score of 56.4, followed by the South with 51.5, the Northeast 50.4 and the West 47.3.
