You know we love cross-promotion, and we know we love cross-promotion. So, leaving all shame behind, this post is on a wholly different kind of development, one that just happens to be designed by our friends over at ISA. The Modules is an apartment complex built right off of Temple’s Campus, and it is the [...]

Between the rigors imposed by any good press wrangler and the demands of my virulent, terminal (and often contagious) case of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out), New Orleans was an exhausting trip. It also, as you may have noticed, left little time for the actual reporting that I was supposedly down there to do. I [...]

I have had the opportunity to speak with a few of the homeowners at the Fifty for Five event here in New Orleans. Most of the video needs a lot of editing which simply isn’t going to happen until I am back in Philly, but one home owner was brief enough for me to share [...]

This post is part of my coverage of the Fifty for Five event by Rebuilding Together. Sears, the events main sponsor, paid my way down here but they have no say in what I write. Disclaimer over. I stumbled into New Orleans yesterday on two hours of sleep, an inevitable condition of the early morning [...]

The new builder, JR, has been spending time fixing leaks, code problems and other disappointments left by the previous builder (thanks Barry!), and has started installing the maple floor. That's not JR, it's his partner, uh, er, I forget (sorry!). This is a huge -- if much delayed -- milestone, and cause for much rejoicing. As soon as the polyurethane cures, the cabinets and stair wall can be installed, and most of the finished plumbing and electrical can go in. Ted the Architect has come up with an innovative shower wall treatment that I'm pretty confident you've never seen, but that Richard Serra will love. Stay tuned. Thanks guys!

That’s right, I’m headed down to New Orleans bright and (too) early tomorrow morning to cover Rebuilding Together’s big event in the Big Easy. Fifty for Five is an effort to rehab 50 homes in the Gentilly neighborhood in 5 days and is a sort of celebratory construction binge to mark the more extensive work [...]
