Farah Nayeri reports for Bloomberg that Richard Rogers, the architect whose design for a London building was blocked by the Prince of Wales, is a two-time nominee for the RIBA Stirling Prize, Britian’s highest architectural distinction.

Rogers carried two of the six nominations for the award, which will be announced on October 17 and is worth thirty-three thousand dollars. His firm Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners was short-listed for Maggie’s Centre for cancer patients in London and the Bodegas Protos winery near Valladolid, Spain, the Royal Institute of British Architects said in a press release.

The other four nominees for the Stirling 2009 are Fuglsang Kunstmuseum, in Denmark, by Tony Fretton Architects; Liverpool One Masterplan, by BDP; 5 Aldermanbury Square, in London, by Eric Parry Architects; and Kentish Town Health Centre, in London, by Allford Hall Monaghan Morris.
