The 20 West Laura project is their first in downtown off the main campus site. They've mentioned they'd like to retrofit more buildings in a similar fashion. They're basically playing the role of what SCAD has done in Savannah over the last 30 years.

There's no need to move the campus. There's considerable investment there. Instead focus on strengthening connectivity between it and the Northbank. The Skyway, infilling surface parking lots, restoring buildings like the Jones Brothers Furniture Company, or even repurposing some of FBC's facilities for educational/cultural purposes, can accomplish this incrementally.

I would be fine with the SCAD model if that is the way they are going.

I think Danis and Dasher Hurst have done a great job so far.

Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

So, to the young people fighting in this movement for change, here is my charge: march in the streets, protest, run for school committee or city council or the state legislature. And win. - Ed Markey

In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

I'd settle for the garage breaking ground versus the Trio.

Didn't have a good place to put this, and it didn't deserve it's own thread. But it isn't that far from the Barnett building.

This is a hell of a deal for somebody:

I drove by the building this week and saw the windows. They have one of the lanes blocked on Adams so you get lots of time to see the outside. What happened to all of the windows that OPEN UP? All the new windows are now closed. Its like being stuck in the Omni.

Very disappointing, not going to look there for a unit, ever.
