I have been following the Mead Park Barn story with interest for some time. I have always viewed the structure as one that would be charming if restored, in the same way that vintage boat houses, old factories, mills, carriage houses and stables can be architecturally interesting and add depth, character and authenticity to a town. Imagine Nantucket without the many antique buildings that were originally of industrial or utilitarian use, but were valued and restored and given a second life as museums, shops, restaurants and offices. The town of New Canaan has neglected to maintain the Mead barn for as long as I can recall, and of course, in its current condition, no one can argue that it’s an eye sore. Some people can only see what is in front of them now- the broken windows, the rusted fuel tank, the ugly asphalt roofing shingles siding the added staircase. As a designer, it’s my job to see potential, and with the Mead Barn, that’s very easy to do. With new ( historically appropriate) windows and doors, a new roof, a redressed side stair, and an edited landscape surround, the barn could be transformed from blight to beauty. I’ve attended some of the town hall meetings meant to address questions around the many town properties that need attention, and have read the lengthy report evaluating the various buildings, as well as a number of articles and letters. It’s clear to me that solutions to these property issues will take creative, out-of-the-box thinking, flexibility, cooperation and vision. In spite of certain town officials claiming to be looking for private/public partnership type solutions, the proposal by the New Canaan Preservation Alliance has been met with great and repeated resistance.

If an ice dam is already causing water damage to a home’s interior ceilings and walls, the Commerce Department recommends hiring a professional ice dam removal service that uses steamers.

What is Southeast Asia doing about autism?

"Our roof saved our lives," she said. "When you live through something this horrific and understand the power it has to cause mass devastation, it’s shocking to hear people say they are replacing their roofs with asphalt shingles again. It’s simply not worth the risk to your home, or your life."

The short-message data response message includes at least one of an address for a short message service center, an indication that indicates no mobile-terminated message is pending for the UE, or a short-message entity destination address.

A relatively short-lived style, Streamline Moderne buildings paid homage to the spirit of progress and travel by borrowing the aerodynamic curves of 1930s luxury trains, planes, and ocean liners. Steelbanded casement windows, portholes, curved railings, and chrome accents are all part of the vernacular.Notable practitioners: William Kesling; Milton Black; Clarence Smale

Martin Grohman, the sustainability director for one of the country’s largest roofing companies, urges contractors to promote recycling.

The education I got about how our food chain in America works was priceless. What was also priceless was a good stick of cheese. The mozzarella cheese was shaped into blocks that looked like gold bars and as far as the restaurateurs were concerned, it is bouillon, plain and simple. The tug of war over these gold bars amongst the Italians with the buying and selling of it rivaled any Wall Street brokerage firm I had ever seen. The people behind the scene looked like they were plucked right out of any one of the Mafia Movies we have all watched over the years. Cheese in America is big business and the pricing of mozzarella cheese is nothing short of a blood sport. There is a never-ending, ongoing, and high stakes trade war raging just under the nose of the American consumer without anyone knowing it. Pour yourself a glass of Sambuca, get yourself a slice of Tiramisu and sit back and read about the secret world that exists behind the cheese.

In April, Amanda Tobler took a risk. She switched on her newly-installed Tesla Solar Roof on her house San Jose, California, making her one of the first to take a step to realizing Elon Musk’s “house of the future” vision he unveiled on the Desperate Housewives set in October 2016. A month in, she shared with Inverse what it’s like to be an early adopting Tesla solar user.

A slate roof can cost from $12 to $40 per square foot, according to websites and roofers I consulted. Your price will be on the lower end if you use recycled slates or reinstall your own. The price will rise if your house is complicated, your slate is extra fancy or you live in an expensive area. That’s two to four times more than an asphalt-shingle roof. Then again, a slate roof can also last four or more times as long, making it a good value over the long haul. But for a slate roof to last, it must be installed correctly.
