May 12, 2019 - Aqua Tower is a mixed-use residential skyscraper located at 225 North Columbus Drive. Design Architect: Jeanne Gang of Gang Studio. Architect of Record: Loewenberg & Associates. (2009)
"From the moment it appeared on the Chicago skyline, the Aqua Tower has earned numerous awards for design excellence. However, it hasn’t kept all the glory for itself.
It’s fair to say Aqua is a star-maker, with its 2009 completion putting the city’s newest neighborhood, Lakeshore East, on the tip of everyone’s tongue. And though Aqua certainly wasn’t architect Jeanne Gang’s first project, it is the one that put her on Chicagoans' architectural radar The Aqua Tower’s design is a brilliant new approach to the problem long ago identified by Louis Sullivan—how to create an aesthetic for a functional tall building. The basic structure is a standard, modern box. But Jeanne Gang and her firm, Studio Gang, surrounded this box with slow-rippling, white concrete balconies, giving the skyscraper a sculptural quality.
Each individual balcony is unique in size, shape and protrusion, allowing residents to chat with neighbors above or below. The balconies also help to break up wind vortices, minimize wind shear, shade neighboring apartments and prevent birds from colliding with windows. Each balcony is part of a greater floor slab. Contractors used GPS coordinates to precisely pour each of the 82 designs. Building Aqua was a feat of engineering.
Those not staying in Aqua’s Radisson Hotel (floors 1 through 18) or living in the residential units (floors 18 through 81) can experience the building’s majesty, even from afar. The curving white concrete balconies and colored glass create the impression of water cascading down the building's sides.
Situated next to Lake Michigan in Lakeshore East, the building’s water motif connects residents and visitors to the city’s most remarkable natural landform. Also paying homage to the Midwest’s natural beauty is Gang’s decision to make the Aqua Tower planet-friendly, through rainwater collection systems, heat resistant and fritted glass, and energy-efficient lighting.
Aqua is the tallest building in the United States designed by a woman-owned firm."

Fans of economic progress attended Gear Up, Game On, a pre-season fundraiser for the Center for Economic Progress (CEP) on Sept 13, 2012. Presented by the CEP Associate Board & MB Financial Bank at Market Restaurant & Bar in Chicago, it was a lively evening that provided the opportunity for young professionals to network while championing financial security for low-income families.
Some who attended engaged in friendly competition by wearing either blue & orange or green & gold while they watched the Bears/Packers game. Sadly the home team didn’t win. However, raffle prize winners took away some great prizes: Home Run (Value: $360) Tim N; Olympic Spirit (Value: $282) Adam B; My Kind of Town (Value: $200) Hanna W; For the Enemy (Value: $600) Andrew H aka Go Pack!
The biggest winners were CEP clients. Thanks to MB Financial Bank generously sponsoring the evening, all ticket & raffle proceeds fund mission critical services including free financial coaching and tax preparation for low-income families. It’s a win-win for CEP clients and their communities.
Plus, there’s more good news! For the first time at an Associate Board event, new giving qualified for a 100% match from an anonymous CEP donor. Instead of the usual terrific $35 of economic impact in a community for every $1 invested, the match will yield an incredible $70!

The Katsura Imperial Villa (桂離宮 Katsura Rikyū), or Katsura Detached Palace, is a villa with associated gardens and outbuildings in the western suburbs of Kyoto, Japan (in Nishikyō-ku, separate from the Kyoto Imperial Palace). It is one of Japan's most important large-scale cultural treasures.
Its gardens are a masterpiece of Japanese gardening, and the buildings are even more important, one of the greatest achievements of Japanese architecture. The palace includes a shoin ("drawing room"), tea houses, and a strolling garden. It provides an invaluable window into the villas of princes of the Edo period.
The palace formerly belonged to the princes of the Hachijō-no-miya (八条宮) family. The Imperial Household Agency administers it, and accepts visitors by appointment.
History
The Katsura district of Kyoto has long been favored for villas, and in the Heian period, Fujiwara no Michinaga had a villa there. The members of the Heian court found it an elegant location for viewing the moon.
Prince Hachijō Toshihito (智仁; 1579–1629), the first of the Hachijō-no-miya line, established the villa at Katsura. The prince was a descendant of Emperor Ogimachi, and younger brother of Emperor Go-Yozei. Once adopted by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, he cancelled the adoption when Hideyoshi had a son, and founded the Hachijō-no-miya house.
The shoin of Katsura Imperial Villa is divided into three parts: the Old Shoin, the Middle Shoin, and the New Palace. The Old Shoin was built in around 1616.[1] The construction of the shoin, teahouse and garden continued in the time of the second prince, Toshitada (智忠; 1619–1662), and reached completion after some decades.
The Hachijō-no-miya house changed its name to Tokiwai-no-miya (常磐井宮), Kyōgoku-no-miya (京極宮), and finally Katsura-no-miya (桂宮), before the line died out in 1881.
The Imperial Household Ministry took control of the Katsura Detached Palace in 1883, and since World War II, the Imperial Household Agency has been in control.

The Old Shoin, Middle Shoin and New Palace are each in the shoin style, with irimoya kokerabuki (柿葺) roofs. The Old Shoin shows elements of the sukiya style in places like the veranda. A space called the moon-viewing platform protrudes even farther from the veranda, and shows that the main theme of Katsura Detached Palace was moon-viewing.
The walls of the Middle Shoin and New Palace have ink-paintings by the school of Kanō Tan'yū (狩野 探幽). The shelving in the upper room of the New Palace is considered especially noteworthy.
The strolling garden takes water from the Katsura River for the central pond, around which are the Shōkintei (松琴亭), Shōkatei (賞花亭), Shōiken (笑意軒), and Gepparō (月波楼); tea houses, hill, sand, bridge, and lanterns. There is also a Buddhist hall, Onrindō (園林堂).

After the visit to the Fleet Air Arm Museum, in the afternoon, we next went to Lytes Cary. The manor and gardens are run by the National Trust.
Lytes Cary is a manor house with associated chapel and gardens near Charlton Mackrell and Somerton in Somerset, England. The property, owned by the National Trust, has parts dating to the 14th century, with other sections dating to the 15th, 16th, 18th, and 20th centuries. "Yet all parts blend to perfection with one another and with the gentle sunny landscape that surrounds them," comments Nikolaus Pevsner. The House is listed as Grade I by English Heritage.
The chapel predates the existing house, having been built around 1343, and functioned as a chantry chapel, where masses could be said for the souls of the family, both living and dead. The great hall was added in the 15th century and the Oriel Room in the 16th. Various renovations were undertaken during the 16th and 17th centuries after which the house fell into disrepair with the north range being demolished by the early 19th century. In 1907 Sir Walter Jenner of the Jenner baronets bought the house and restored it in a period style, furnishing it with fine 17th century and 18th century oak furniture, antique tapestries and fabrics modelled after medieval textiles, along with historic and period paintings. On his death in 1948 he left the house to the National Trust.
The gardens are listed as Grade II on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England. The original 17th-century gardens have disappeared. However, the Jenners laid them out in an Arts and Crafts style with a series of 'rooms', which are separated from each other by high, neatly clipped box and yew hedges. These are complemented by ponds and walks in and between each of the 'rooms'.

2011 Summer Associate Erica Turret, far left, Oberlin college junior, shows campers the compostable toilet they will be using while attending the George Jones Discovery Camp, a camp centered around educating and engaging disadvantaged youth in sustainable agriculture, healthy eating habits and experiencing nature.
Turret and fellow Summer Associate Rafe Scobey-Thal (featured right in straw hat) described to students how to use the outhouse as well as the environmental reasons for using a compostable toilet at a farm.
-----------
The George Jones Discovery Camp, organized through the George Jones Farm and the New Agrarian Center involved a total of 30 campers in the course of three consecutive weeks. Coming from all areas of Lorain County, Scobey-Thal and Turret supervised a mix of rural and urban campers that ranged from the ages of 7-12.
Among many things, the campers learned how to plant seedlings and beans, how to effectively water plants, how to weed and do general maintenance on a garden, how to identify trees and leaves and edible berries, how to do art using only sticks and yarn and how to make acorn mobiles. They learned about the way food in this country is grown (on large, non-organic, non-local farms) and why these things are not healthy and not environmentally sustainable.
As a final project, Scobey-Thal and Turret will be creating a manual for future counselors and programmers of the camp that list contacts with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Oberlin, Elyria, and Lorain, Save Our Children, and House of Healing, both located in Elyria. The manual will also include a list of indoor and outdoor games that are appropriate for different ages, different lessons that pertain to things on the farm, and a suggested schedule for the camp.
