  1. To the detractors in this comment thread; Please inform yourself prior to passing judgment on projects like these. Having worked for private developers who construct both low-income and market-rate developments, I can say with absolute certainty that these projects you decry as "cheap" and "marginally better…" are in fact higher quality than most market-rate condominiums developed during the boom. These projects meet more stringent energy codes, tougher storm-water management criteria, accentuated accessibility requirements, product durability evaluations, etc., etc.… Take the product durability requirements. In order to get their tax credits, developers must clad their developments in a minimum of 50% brick or cement board. Both projects you are questioning are clad 100% in these materials. I wish the developer of this EIFS nightmare had been as responsible: http://www.3mass.com/. And the density question. These sites have zoning with minimum development criteria. Single family homes would violate those requirements. These locations properly demand density a thriving city requires. Suburban single-family developments are entirely inappropriate at the addresses in question. I could continue for pages about why these projects are good for the city, but I've prattled on enough already.

  2. I think they're called Nut-Rageous... they're made by Blue Diamond, and they're gluten free and fantastic!

  3. I am not worried about the project. The last time I was in that area, it looked as if a large number of the homes in that area are being rehabilitated. Great news as there are some great period homes located close to the museum, and many out of state visitors will soon have an even better visual experience as they visit this asset.

  4. 'The primary purpose for ratings for Disciple is to act like an insider and make the most infinitesimal ratings into a success.'
    Oooooh. Swing and a miss. Try again.

    All I know is it is not the same as it was years ago. Gone is the technology and the verve that made it all so special.'
    Neither is NASCAR. Or the NFL. Or just about any other sporting entity. Technology is not the issue. For many it is no longer 'run what you brung' but the homogenization of the competition began well before that magical 1996 date to which the mostly ignorant point.

    'I just wished that both of you would get around to admitting that cart did nothing to hurt IMS and the 500. I would go so far as to say it helped strengthen it and helped keep its luster bright.'
    I would say that it is as irrelevant as a USAC sanction today. As did every other evolutionary phase. That entity was no more or less important than any other that has occupied it over the years. They're problem was thinking they were bigger than the institution that made their existence possible. That turned out to be a mistake.

    'And yes there was a series prior to cart. And anyone willing to be truthful would admit the cart series was more successful than the old rag-tag races USAC used to put on. It was the whole reason for Gurney's White Paper and the formation of cart.'
    Oddly, however, that ‘successful’ series turned out to be anything but sans IMS teat. It appears they needed more than just bravado. And why should anyone care? It is 2012. Look ahead. Not backward.

    'But I will admit, recent history and even past history seems to indicate the Hulman/George family might not be the best entity to run it either.'
    But they have been since 1946. It is probably about time to get used to that.

    'I hope the drivers are safe in the oncoming heat. I also hope the new cars propensity to tilt to the wall when hitting doesn't cause some major head injuries or worse. I probably won't be watching...but I do want the drivers to be safe.'
    If you do not watch, why would you bother offering commentary? That defies logic. I do not watch soccer, but I do not recall ever going to a comment section to offer any words about it. But with regard to your safety sentiment, me too. And just today Dallara announced modifications to the undertray specifically designed to avoid the type of pivoting seen in the Carpenter and Kimball accidents. Kudos.

  5. Cheezits!
