A new luxury residential tower in Vancouver provides a twist on the typology
It’s not hard to imagine why developers flock to the waterfront of Vancouver, British Columbia. Concord Pacific Group has built many high-rise glass and concrete residential towers there, but the Erickson Building – a new 17-story, 61-unit development – stands out among their portfolio. Designed in the style of legendary Canadian architect Arthur Erickson, known for his modernist concrete structures, the Erickson’s twisting form rotates counterclockwise and then shifts clockwise, evoking the motion of the water below. Between concrete columns, expanses of glass capture panoramic views of downtown Vancouver, False Creek, the Strait of Georgia, and the Pacific Ocean beyond.
Architects, engineers, and contractors streamline their process to ensure a quick delivery of the Nebraska Cornhuskers’ new home, Pinnacle Bank Arena.
Along the western edge of downtown Lincoln, Nebraska, lies the historic Haymarket District. An industrial and commercial area in use since the 1870s, the district had nevertheless become blighted and run-down. In the 1980s, the Haymarket District began to attract some mixed-use development, including art galleries, coffee houses, and residences. In more recent years, rehabilitation efforts have extended westward, and an official redevelopment plan was established.
Measuring is the best way to improve what you are doing. Doing it right is the trick.
Benchmarking is a form of measurement – where you measure something else to see where you are lagging, identify the areas and take corrective action. This is the essence of benchmarking. Incorporate this as part of your Health Check, as discussed earlier.

信息上的低流动管道装置盛产和低流动和无水小便器现在被广泛使用。马桶冲洗体积已经进化到每次冲洗1.6加仑，或大于1980的3.5加仑标准的一半以下。低流量装置可以省钱公用事业费用的事实是清楚的，易于与水法案的审查，并每月每个灯具的周期的估计来计算。一个新的灯具购买一个诱人的投资回收期可以仅仅基于水的使用来计算。然而，一些设施经理认为，这些管道设备所提供的实用程序节流不被意外保养和维修费用，他们产生匹配。低流量管道装置是否提供了投资回报（ROI）一个较好的回报，问题出现了。

我不得不出席10 个 租户希望在绿色建筑中租赁空间。尽早找到与绿色租户合作的创意方式，扩大你的设计选择。在目前的市场上，建造绿色建筑是一种良好的商业行为，它并不需要花钱购买时髦的绿色产品。通过关注几个核心建筑系统来构建LEED认证标准是可行的。此外，如果项目中的每个人——甚至是最终用户——都朝着同一个目标努力，成本和风险就可以得到承担，位于加拿大温哥华的DiscoveryGreen建筑就是一个例证，该建筑获得了LEED白金认证。—google_ad_section_end—> In the news this week there has been talk of inanimate objects that can Tweet their status to humans via their Twitter accounts. Included in this array were a house plant that can complain about being under- or over-watered and a pair of shoes that can advertise when they take steps. Entertaining, for sure, but the one category that caught my attention was electric meters that can Tweet data.
