Hi, I'm wondering if over the course of your work you've ever used python as part of your job or would have wanted to. If so, what task would you have completed with it? Thank you
Seeking gap year+ advice
Hello All,
I am working on a career change from estate jewelry to historic preservation architecture. I have an undergrad degrees in Economics and Art + Architectural History. The last five years I have spent as a buyer and seller of estate jewelry, gemologist and appraiser.
From my research it’s looking like I’ll definitely need to go to school for M Arch and/or Historic Preservation. As that won’t happen until Fall of 2023 at the earliest, I am looking for advice on how to spend my time through the next year and a half. I have heard suggestions of volunteering my time and energy to a local preservation society. That’s a good start for me, but would prefer to find a temporary position in the field that paid even modestly.
I am deeply unhappy in my current work environment and feel my personal confidence straining under the toxicity so I would really like to leave my current job if I can find an occupation that pays.
Most of the firms I’m seeing require some sort of degree, which I don’t have, so if anyone has any experience In filling this gap intelligently and would be willing to offer advice it would be greatly appreciated, even if it’s not architecture specific.
Per this tweet from Preservation Futures, a historic preservation advocacy group, the Walgreens at 1601 N Wells is no longer selling it's property to be part of this redevelopment. Alderman Hopkins has confirmed it. The Walgreens was designed by Stanley Tigerman in a postmodern style at some point before 1982 which is apparent in design details such as some oddly placed lamps. This Walgreens also was the site of such historic events as that time they dug up an aisle in Walgreens, a event notable for being mildly funny.
Details on the wider redevelopment, which does not have specific proposed building renderings but will be designed by British architect David Adjaye, can be found in this article by the pro-develoment website Chicago YIMBY.
… and it’s hard for me to believe this makes our community any better in nine of ten instances.
I’m an IU student who’s lived in Bloomington for a few years now, and try to keep up to date with local politics and such. It is crazy to me that so many Bloomington residents have to petition to do so much as cut down a dead tree or put up a shed in their backyard. For the courthouse square I absolutely understand and support it, but for residents backyards?!
Can someone make the pro- case for the BHPC?
Hello, just curious to hear about homeowners’ experience, both good and bad, getting approval for exterior improvements. I own a home in a historic district and haven’t needed to seek approval from the commission yet, but may a need to do so in the Spring.
I’m born and raised in Hoboken (22, F) and I want to get more involved in local politics. My main focal points are architectural historic preservation, promoting a strong LOCAL economy, and walk/bikability. Are there any local politicians that align with this ideology? I’ve tried to research Ballah and other councilman but its overwhelming with 0 political science background. Anyone have any insight?
PS: no one come for my ignorance I’m trying to learn
I'm currently in community college and am on track to transfer to a 4-year university near me where I plan to get a bachelor's in Historic Preservation. I'm deathly afraid of making the wrong choice when it comes to education and career and I'm torn between two options for my minors. The first minor I'm looking at is Museum Studies and then hopefully a career working in a museum managing collections. The other option is Urban Studies which would lend itself to building preservation/conservation and urban planning.
All the career options related to this major really appeal to me but I'm torn on which to work towards. Is there anyone who works in these fields who could give some insight on what it's like to work in these jobs? I'm aware that simply having a degree in Historic Preservation probably grants a lot of flexibility within the field but I'd like to specialize in something.
Hello, I’m a graduate student in Urban Planning at the University of Arizona, and I need to conduct a quick survey by 10/6 related to historic preservation and incentive programs for saving historic houses. I would greatly appreciate it if you could fill it out (I need 50 responses total). You don’t need any prior knowledge on the topic and it’s 12 short questions. Thank you in advance!
