Iraqi-born English architect Zaha Hadid's plan, which shared first prize with French designer Antoine Grumbach's, is all cantilevered glass and steel with the bulkiest parts of the structure at either end so as to interrupt the view as little as possible. Grumbach devised an open-air suspension bridge with a greenhouse at one end and a 500-ft. residential glass tower with hanging gardens...

NIH estimates that 100,000 U.S. children could receive HGH if it proves effective...
