Many salient points to unpack with Stephen Smith's Op Ed in the NYTimes regarding immigration, outdated codes, unions, and elevators. Elevators in North America have become over-engineered, bespoke, handcrafted and expensive pieces of equipment that are unaffordable in all the places where they are most needed. Special interests here have run wild with an outdated, inefficient, overregulated system. Accessibility rules miss the forest for the trees. Our broken immigration system cannot supply the labor that the construction industry desperately needs. Regulators distrust global best practices and our construction rules are so heavily oriented toward single-family housing that we’ve forgotten the basics of how a city should work. https://lnkd.in/dMYAmGTg

Solomon's work at Sea Ranch was a transformational experience for a young kid in the 80's.
Remembering landscape architect and designer Barbara Stauffacher Solomon (1928—2024). On April 1, 1986, Solomon delivered a lecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design on her proclivity for green rectangles, the wild gardens of California, breaking with modernism, and landscape as architecture as art. Solomon’s lecture came two years before the publication of her first book, Green Architecture and the Agrarian Garden, which grew out of her master’s thesis in architecture at the University of California, Berkeley. Harvard Design Magazine published a transcript of her talk in the Fall/Winter 2023 issue. https://hgsd.us/3ymAdf9
