When I took over, the competition received around 40 – 50 entries from around the state and the reception was a lemonade and cookies event held in the chapter office. Within 2 years, our entries almost tripled and the announcement party became a “must attend” event with 100+ people regularly attending.

This is an interior view of the Farnsworth House – it is stunning to see in person and it was a project that I had never seen in person before but it was on my architecture bucket list ( now that would be a good idea for a blog post) I ate terribly when I was in Chicago despite the fact that it is fairly renown as a foodie-town.

Their names were on the display, no need to read a name tag across the room. I have participated in a large transportation conference which, when held in person, was very confusing with its many concurrent events and sessions. Remote work from home is hard on downtowns as I have described in various blog articles before.

Several years ago (around 1992 I believe) the cathedral went through a fund-raising event where you were allowed to buy a piece of glass and etch something on it. Since you are not answering my last comment I think you are doing this blog not to hear also a critical voice but just to praise your posts. Incidentally, cool blog.

This captures all the spirit and wonder we were trying to create in our Bunkie project, but does so without the price tag we ended up with. What I do does not necessarily create the most popular playhouses … and that’s sort of the point for this event. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email.' Steve Jordan ?

After obtaining my license as an Architect in New York, I brainstormed several long term goals and decided to start a personal blog, develop design projects, and learn everything that I could about starting an architecture firm. Finally, the day of the event came and we had about 30 participants for this local event.

Socially distanced neighborhood events started popping up with masked bands and DJs playing impromptu concerts. Kids were running around playing laser tag. Parks became centers of community life until the Mayor finally agreed to close some select neighborhood streets for cars so people had more space. Families were having picnics.
