In response to this article on elevator construction, regulation, labor, and immigration, I believe a viable solution lies in a business model that leverages the strengths of a 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) designated 501c3 organization in conjunction with a benefit elevator company. Our nonprofit Emi's Elevator, which is the majority owner of Nokes Mountain Elevator Company, aims to address these issues by creating Small, Women-owned, and Minority-owned (SWAM) businesses and job opportunities through targeted apprenticeship programs. Our mission focuses specifically on public, low-income, and subsidized housing sectors, where there is a significant need for the maintenance, servicing, modernization, and new installation of elevator infrastructure. By prioritizing the creation of skilled jobs and fostering entrepreneurship within these underserved housing communities, we can alleviate labor shortages and contribute to economic development. Our approach ensures that workers receive the necessary training and support, promoting a sustainable workforce equipped to meet the demands of the elevator industry. In addition to our focus on housing, we also address elevator infrastructure needs in public facilities, including military bases, rehabilitation centers, hospitals, and other essential public institutions. Ensuring reliable and efficient elevator systems in these facilities not only improves operational efficiency and safety but also supports the well-being of the communities they serve. Moreover, by focusing on the maintenance and modernization of elevator infrastructure in public and subsidized housing, we can contribute to lowering housing costs. Efficient and reliable elevator systems reduce the overall maintenance costs for housing authorities, which can translate into lower rents and fees for residents. Additionally, by creating job opportunities and fostering economic growth within these communities, we help residents achieve financial stability, further reducing the economic pressures associated with housing costs. Through this integrated business model, we not only enhance the quality and safety of elevator systems in both housing and public facilities but also drive social impact by empowering marginalized groups, fostering community resilience, and contributing to more affordable housing and better public services.

The Capitol Hill SLC neighborhood is one of the many neighborhoods in Salt Lake City. The truth is that there aren't really any neighborhoods in Salt Lake City that aren't delightful to live in. Having said that, it's always fun to break down the different SLC neighborhoods. Capitol Hill is often associated with the Avenues because geographically they are somewhat attached. We will be exploring ALL the neighborhoods, however. So, let's keep it bite sized. #CapitolHillSLC #HomeInSaltLakeCityUtah #LivingInSaltLakeCity UtahHomesForSale #Saltlakecityrealtor #UTRealEstate #FirstTimeHomeBuyer #FirstTimeHomeBuyerTips #FirstTimeHomeBuyerGuide #FirstTimeHomeBuyerVideo #ActiveUtahHomes #Video #fyp #SaltLakeCityRealtor #SaltLakeCityRealEstate

When we wrote a robust set of design guidelines for Spokane's skywalks, we faced many of the same biases. A number of critics (including an association of business owners) thought that skywalks merely robbed pedestrian vitality from the streetscape. I posited another theory, that it was the internalization of retail at the second level of block interiors that was the sole reason for street-level retail vacancies - and that pedestrian bridges merely doubled the pedestrian network. By obscuring the street-level access points and by allowing skywalks' aesthetic appeal to be reduced to glazed "hamster tubes", the city had served to facilitate a separate economy between internal & external retail. The property owners who fund skywalks are merely seeking to increase their pedestrian-to-retail linear footage ratio within their limited holdings, hardly a justification to reduce street facing retail lease space. Rather, in exchange for allowing private development over publicly owned right-of-way the city failed to provide proper guidance and development requirements. Street level access, pedestrian orientation, wayfinder signage, engaging aesthetics (including artistic lighting), are all now development requirements for Spokane skywalks.
