Who needs an inner-city IKEA?
“Frappant” Building in Hamburg-Altona situated in the Neue Grosse Bergstrasse, opened in 1973 as part of a highly praised and worldwide noticed concept of inner-city shopping and as a state of the art 70’s architecture. The world war two shaken and bombed street stood for a new and modern approach in which the gigantic building stood as a landmark. Already two years later and as an impact of the ‘73 oil crisis and its effects on business, the concept came to crisis, due to simple lack of profit. Different companies and enterprises tried to reprofit and revitalize the building, but failed through the years. Meanwhile the concept of concrete casted moderness also came to crisis and the last remaining retailer Karstadt left the building in 2003. The empty building, now under real estate speculation and not properly maintained, was then used by artists, musicians and alternative music-clubs, while the city was still unsuccessfully looking for new investors. Suspicious about the now alternative, non-profit but vital use of the building, the ECA, a local lobby group of business and politicians, started labeling the building as an eyesore and pressure was build up to tear it down. Politicians (including the Green Party) then offered the building to IKEA, that had already focused on another spot closer the motorway and never dreamed of such an offer. This decision then led to wide protest among the local population, fearing gentrification through higher rents and increasing pollution from Ikea traffic. Politicians and lobby groups now unsure of the developing resistance, staged a referendum in the district, under the suggestive question: Are you in favour of a new Ikea in Altona, that will sustainable vitalize and increase attractiveness of the Grosse Bergstrasse. An assertion that has yet to be proofed. Pro-Ikea, winning the referendum by 77%, gave way to IKEA to buy and build. With this decision, alternative concepts of a low and non-profit use were binned and to avoid squatting the whole building was soon demolished by the district.
Meanwhile, Ikea not having even started to build their 7 stories inner-city big-box, shop and resident rents in the area are leveling up and the first old shops already had to close or go. The area now started to become an investment-ground for real estate and with the rising of the Ikea building site, whole plans to restructure other parts of the street are in full affect.
The topic is as controversial and polarized as it was from the very start: Critics claim, that Ikea will not just bring traffic and pollution, but also and more important, a total change of the local structure, both in local business as in housing. It is feared that other chain companies like Starbucks , H&M and others will eventually destroy the local shops and social structure. It is also criticized that a box is replaced by a box, making the street even more narrow and shady. The resistance against IKEA not merely is a resistance against the company, but also a struggle for Altona-Altstadt, their diverse and not very wealthy population, their wellbeing and their very own right to the city.

April 2016 CreativeMornings/Raleigh event (global theme: Risk) with guest speaker Pam Blondin.
Pam Blondin opened Deco Raleigh after almost 30 years as a non-profit executive. During that time, she acted as mentor and consultant in a variety of areas: strategic and fiscal planning, board and volunteer management, community organizing, event planning, program assessment and research methodology. By 2012, she was living and working in Downtown Raleigh but found herself frustrated with the lack of vibrancy in the core of the state’s capital city. So she applied her arsenal of skills to a new challenge: contributing to a creative and vibrant downtown and helping to spark a retail-friendly environment in the area where she had worked and lived for two decades.
Deco Raleigh started with a mission focused on creating connections and supporting the community. The store features almost 200 unique brands and, since 2012, has sold goods produced by more than 100 local makers and artisans.
Since 2012, Deco has donated more than $40,000 in cash and goods to local charities and arts organizations. Blondin is co-founder and sponsor of raleigh [ ] space, Raleigh’s first parklet; this project engaged NCSU students, local businesses and hundreds of Raleigh citizens and was later awarded a 2015 Sir Walter Raleigh Award for Innovation.
She is also co-founder of the Flight Fund (fiscally sponsored by the Visual Art Exchange) that supports public art projects in Raleigh, several of which will be on display by summer 2016. She co-owned the Flight Pop-Up shop on Martin Street during the 2015 holiday season and donated 10% of sales to the Flight Fund. Blondin has become a vocal advocate for public displays of creativity and innovation in downtown Raleigh and enjoys mentoring artisans and entrepreneurs.
Deco been named Best Gift Store by both The Indy and Triangle Downtowner and has been highlighted in Conde’ Nast Traveler and Delta’s Sky Magazine. Yelp and Mashable.com named Deco one of the 25 best independent gift stores in the United States, and Deco received the very first “Rising Star” award from the Downtown Raleigh Alliance. Blondin shares her non-profit expertise as a board member for several local organizations, and she is active in supporting economic development activities focusing on downtown retail.
Special thanks to our host CAM Raleigh and sponsors CompostNow, Remedy, for video production, Counter Culture Coffee, who generously provided us with complimentary coffee, and Rise, who provided the tasty breakfast snacks.

This is Angela. Angela very kindly agreed to be part of my 365 project today. And truth-be-told, it didn't take too much convincing on my part... a willing subject makes my job much easier :)
Angela is an employee of a restaraunt named "Not By Bread Alone". "Not By Bread Alone" (NBBA) is located in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and has been in business since 1984. Angela has been a part of their team for the past 8 years. This restaraunt is near my place of employment, and has been a place I've been regularly eating lunch at for the past 4 or so years.
I'm one of those people that tend to stick with one food in particular, once I find the perfect dish that is. So the ladies at NBBA are pretty knowledgable when it comes to my order... cause it never changes. In fact, at one point in time they were talking about putting an "Andrew" button on their cash register, cause they could guarantee I would order the same meal everytime I walked in. Let's just say I consumed more than my fair share of their Tarragon Chicken Salad Wrap, garnished with several small slices of buttered bread, and a Snapple.
Some things have changed over the years... I've since increased my food options, by becoming a regular consumer of their Hot Roast Beef Sandwhich and a side of fruit. And Snapple is no longer offered, so I go with the Nantucket Nectar.
And, some things have stayed the same... namely, the ladies of NBBA. They are wonderful in the realm of customer service. Always friendly, always smiling and pleasant, and always guaranteed to keep narrow-menu'd people such as myself coming back again and again (often-times for the exact same dish).
Give them a visit if you are in town. I highly recommend the Tarragon Chicken Salad Wrap and the Hot Roast Beef, but you'd be a fool if you left without checking-out their wonderful selection of breads. In other words, don't go home without taking a loaf of their Sausage Bread with you... Mmmm Mmmm, you will NOT regret it.
See you on Day 15!
