“The Wall” project, a Gannett project spearheaded by the Arizona Republic, was an in-depth look at what it would really mean to build President Trump’s border wall.

From the beginning of the reporting process to full publication, the project nearly one year to complete. It published over 10 days of print content including two special sections.

Ultimately the project won a 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting, 2017 Scripps Howard Award for Innovation, and Society form News Design Award of Excellence in Print & Digital Design.
