Build together. Stay together. Succeed together. Building strong connections is essential for achieving significant success. It's great to see that these two companies recognize the importance of this factor too.

Engineering and architectural firms are faced with risk-versus-reward-related decisions at virtually every turn. Sometimes the decision is squarely within the wheelhouse of the engineering and architectural professionals: Can a project be designed such that risk of damage to the structure, related structures, people, etc. be avoided? Or is the assumed risk on a particular project properly aligned with the potential to earn a profit? Those questions may be at the heart of a professional services practice, but today a successful firm must pay attention to so much more. In the most recent issue of Zweig Group's The Zweig Letter, Garver’s General Counsel Kurtis John shares four areas of concern that firms shouldn't overlook when mitigating risk.

Front and Center: The Impact of #Noise and #Vibration in #CondoLiving 🔊 Looks like noise and vibration from neighboring units takes the front cover—literally and figuratively. It's not surprising, given that our office fields about 30 calls each week from distressed residents and #condomanagers across Canada and the USA. The key message here? Prevention, prevention, prevention. Effective noise and vibration control in condominiums isn't just a luxury, it's a right, literally in the Condo Act. No we can't eliminate all disturbances, but we can significantly reduce them with the right measures, including high quality acoustic underlayment's. Let's raise the standard for quality solutions that protect the tranquility of our living spaces. Because when it comes to our homes, shouldn't peace and quiet come standard? #NoiseControl #CondoLiving #PreventionFirst #condomanagement #propertymanager #propertymanagement #condoliving #condolife #soundcontrol #noiseprevention #hoa #hoamanagement #strata #stratamanager #stratamanagement

I am honored to participate on this panel discussion with our industries esteemed transformational leaders!

It was great to join DDC Commissioner Thomas Foley, P.E., and DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez this morning at New York Building Congress panel and share all the ways we’re building a stronger, safer, more resilient future. Thank you Carlo Scissura for the opportunity to share the role and remit of the public realm team at City Hall. To recap, we are focused on doing 3 things: 1. Hardware - Advancing transformative public space projects to make sure they happen on time and on budget. From Fifth Avenue and Broadway Vision to Chinatown Connections and Queensway, we support capital agencies to get them decisions they need to keep projects moving. 2. Software - Creating vibrant public spaces is not just about building new. The real secret sauce is maintenance and programming which can transform the smallest unassuming spaces into something wonderful. Cities need partners to help us do that maintainance and activation work, but we don’t always make it easy for partners. How do we make it easier for partners to do this work in our public spaces? 3. Orgware - Many agencies have various jurisdictions over public spaces. How can city agencies better coordinate their policies, rules, regulations, and plans in a comprehensive way that is easier to understand for people to understand and navigate?
