Sky's the limit for future housing
Over the past 100 years, home building has evolved and matured, yet the basic exterior appearance has not changed much. But as we face land and labour shortages, high construction costs, innovative new technologies and a growing demand for sustainable materials, we are poised to witness some monumental changes in housing. One program that may prove to have a major impact on housing is the provincial government's Places to Grow Act of 2005, which requires at least 40 per cent of residential land development to occur within built-up land areas. Thanks to this act, "housing stock in 2051 will probably be dominated by highrises," speculates Hugh Heron, president of The Heron Group of Companies. And this is what's coming to pass in north Oakville, where a major mixed-use corridor is being designed to accommodate the anticipated growth within the town's boundaries.
New York City Is Just Right for Gordon, Wife
Hidden among endless Yankee and Met writing and glamorous celebrity coverage came this nugget of news last week from the New York Post. "NASCAR star Jeff Gordon has just become a full-time New Yorker.The 35-year-old hot-rodder and his smokin' hot Belgian model wife Ingrid Vandebosch have just signed a one-year, $26,000-a-month lease for an apartment at the Park Imperial on West 56th Street." For that cool $26K/month, Gordon's pad at the Park Imperial will have three bedrooms and bathrooms. Views of Central Park from 70 stories up will be the norm and tenant that lives just above the new space? Sean "Diddy" Combs. That's a treat in itself, for sure.The New York City address is nothing new for Gordon, as he has had at some residence in the Big Apple for a few years now. Apparently, Jimmie Johnson and his wife also have a place in the city.
Auto-Editorial Stimulation
The Atlantic, which is turning 150, has so much to celebrate that it's devoting a few pages to auto-editorial stimulation in every issue this anniversary year, with looks back at what it published by Virginia Woolf, John Muir, Robert Frost, John Maynard Keynes, Peter Drucker, Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Woodrow Wilson, and others. The Atlantic is taking its act on the road, too, with a "live tour—to New York, Boston, San Francisco, Chicago, and Washington D.C." in which it will convene "great thinkers and prominent members of the public to exchange ideas and share in the celebration."
