Thayer sees his proposed apartment plan as positive for the community and students. He says that the underground parking will decrease the amount of traffic going to and from school. Plus, the design of the apartments allow for the best possible socialization. His plans were met with much opposition by a small group of community members.

Tuesday night’s public discussion held by the College Hill Neighborhood Association saw a heated debate between opponents of the proposed 257 Thayer Street student apartment complex and the few residents in favor of it.

Robert Gilbane ’71 P’02 P’05, chief executive officer and chairman of Gilbane, Inc., gave a detailed presentation about his proposed student housing project that would sit on the corner of Meeting and Thayer streets and eliminate nine to 10 houses on the block. The project was continually referred to as an “opportunity,” allowing for a stronger sense of community and new partnerships. But Gilbane met opposition from the College Hill community.

Gilbane cited various projects that his company has completed, the Rhode Island School of Design’s 15 West dormitory being the nearest  to the proposed construction. The Thayer project takes Gilbane’s idea of “the next level of student housing,” used on the RISD campus, to College Hill.

The apartment-style living would have one entrance on Thayer street, an underground parking garage, four stories of suites, a lounge and study spaces. Gilbane noted that the community would see a decrease in traffic, as students who currently live off campus would not need to drive their vehicles to campus. In addition, he added that one of the main aspects of college life is socialization, which he feels would be fostered by this dormitory complex…Continue Reading

Sergeant Bales is about to face many unfair and long trials in court. He is charged with the murder of 17 Afghan civilians. Bales lawyer is unable to access any witness contact, records, or even surveillance video to defend Bales case. Usually there is much more cooperation in this matter, however this just means that it will that much harder to prove anything on either end without equal access to the evidence.

The lawyer representing Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, the soldier charged with 17 counts of murder in the deaths of Afghan civilians this month, said that military prosecutors had denied members of his legal team access to witnesses at a Kandahar hospital, as well as to investigative files, medical records and surveillance video.

“We were expecting a lot more cooperation,” Sergeant Bales’s lead lawyer, John Henry Browne, said during a news conference in Seattle on Friday.

The complaints are expected to be just the first of many disputes over evidence in what experts predict will be an extremely complicated case for both defense and prosecution, given the location of the crime scene in a war zone and the possible hostility of witnesses to lawyers from both sides.

Mr. Browne said that after members of his team were prevented from interviewing survivors of the attacks at a hospital, prosecutors interviewed those witnesses the following day. The witnesses were then released, leaving no contact information. “They could just disappear into the countryside,” Mr. Browne said…Continue Reading

Any good real estate agent knows that successful businesses utilize location. If the location doesn’t fit the needs of the consumer then the business will not thrive. However, location is just part of the equation.

Commercial real estate is experiencing a fundamental, disruptive and well-overdue shift.  People entering the workforce today have a completely different concept of work and the space in which they work than when I began my career, more than 40 years ago. They’re younger than they have ever been, more tech savvy and globally aware with social media consciousness baked into their DNA.

Back when I started, I worked hard during the day and spent evenings and weekends socializing.  I believe that today’s workforce goes to work to socialize, as they have the ability to work 24 hours a day, seven days a week from anywhere they are located.  As the habit of the workforce changes, space available for lease must adjust to the work and social needs of this “new worker,” or go unrented.

Companies must develop new ways to allocate space as the traditional office becomes obsolete —new floor plans within old spaces designed for new work habits – to cater to employee needs and eliminate costly reconstruction.  No longer do employees require “the accoutrements of success” (i.e. large offices) to bolster their egos.

Recently, I have witnessed corporations such as BP and United Airlines relocate from the suburbs to the city in order to build the best employee base possible. It is also rumored that Sears and Kraft are considering moving back to the city. If brought to fruition, these moves will help the companies regain the culture imperative to their success. I think that one thread runs throughout successful relocations: Space that reflects the culture, values and ethos of the company itself. Perhaps Sears should consider moving to its former headquarters at Homen and Arthington?  Sara Lee has made a bold and smart move with its recently announced relocation from Downers Grove back to the city, repurposing the 400 South Jefferson building…Continue Reading

The development of a child should be evaluated by a doctor, especially if the child has difficulty walking should be treated by a chiropractor, the majority of pediatric foot problems will be solved with normal childhood activities, exercise and footwear in some cases, pediatric orthotics may be necessary to provide additional corrective stimulus.

Patients often have questions for their chiropractor if they notice something unusual about their child’s feet or the way the child walks or runs. For many years, the most common pediatric foot problem seen in doctors’ offices has been in-toeing, especially whenever the child is observed running.1-3

Let’s briefly discuss several of the more common pediatric foot conditions that result in the feet turning inwards, as well as how these conditions can (and should) be managed by chiropractors, since specialized bracing and surgery are only rarely necessary.

A case relating to pediatric in-toeing often begins when the parent reports an abnormal appearance of the child’s foot, an awkward gait or a “clumsiness,” with a tendency to trip or fall. A structural and biomechanical examination of the lower extremities – including watching the child walk – will allow for differential diagnosis and appropriate treatment recommendations. In-toeing is generally caused by the following three conditions, whose corrective timing and treatment considerations vary.

Tibial Torsion

Tibial torsion is a common condition in which the tibia has not completed its external rotation to normal adult position (resulting, therefore, in a lack of normal torsion). The key to diagnosis is the closed-chain postural evaluation. On standing examination, the child’s knees face forward while the ankles and feet turn inward… continue reading
