James L. Titus, principal in the architectural firm Dunn and Titus and vice president of Cincinnati’s Center for Economic Initiatives, has received two honors in Ukraine. 

Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko presented Titus with admittance to the Ukrainian Academy of Architects in the capital, Kyiv, where Titus lectured on American architectural practices. And he was recognized at a soccer game in a new stadium he and a joint venture partner participated in designing in Ukraine’s second-largest city, Kharkiv.

The Center for Economic Initiatives has been working on economic development in Ukraine for the past decade.  As an independent consultant there, Titus is currently designing a yacht club/resort in the Crimea and has presented plans for an American-style housing development.
