A retreat to nature at Cold Creek Retreat

Image
Cold Creek Retreat " title="Cold-Creek-Retreat" />Courtesy of Cold Creek Retreat As Clark County becomes more populated, a growing movement has emerged on small farms and at event spaces to preserve little slices of what used to be large swaths of undeveloped land. Recently, a close-in homestead that was settled in the 1920’s opened its entertainment-oriented backyard for private events. Owned by husband and wife team Chris and Tina Cannard, Cold Creek Retreat is located in Vancouver’s Minnehaha neighborhood bordered by Cold Creek Apartments and Crystal Creek Apartments . Within the Cannard’s five acres, visitors can find a magical oasis of mature Evergreens and a forest floor filled with wonder. For the Cannards, the project began as a way to spend more time outside. Once their small outdoor kitchen was installed and a screened-in area to extend outdoor living was built, family and friends began suggesting other ideas and with every addition attendance increa...

Plans to ease 'single biggest source of congestion' in Northern Va. move forward

WASHINGTON — Drivers who sit in one of the most agonizingly slow daily stretches of traffic in the D.C. region could get a new way around it. There are four potential options to cut down on traffic jams on and around Va. Route 28 from the area near Bull Run — the Fairfax County line — through Manassas, Manassas Park and Prince William County . Northern Virginia Transportation Authority Chairman Marty Nohe said two options tied to an extension of Godwin Drive appear the most promising. Godwin Drive runs parallel to Va. Route 28 just west of the city of Manassas. Under the plans, it could be extended along land once considered for part of a “Tri-County Parkway” past Prince William Hospital and Splashdown Water Park to connect to Route 28 either just south of Bull Run or just across the creek in Fairfax County , using Ordway Road to connect to the work already underway to widen Route 28 in Fairfax County . Any changes would also fit in with other Route 28 widening projects to the s...

Arvada City Council’s use of executive sessions bothers group aimed at changing urban renewal authority

Image
ARVADA – A citizens group aimed at stopping an urban renewal plan dubbed “the $30 land deal,” are questioning executive sessions being held by city government in response to its efforts. Arvada For All the People has started a petition drive to amend the city charter, specifically the sections dealing with the Arvada Urban Renewal Authority (AURA). According to the group’s website, a deal with a developer by AURA to sell land valued at millions of dollars at an “already traffic- congested Wadsworth Bypass and 56 th Avenue” for just $30, sparked outrage. “Lack of city council response to the deal has now generated this petition drive to bring more democracy and accountability to City Hall,” the site says. The proposed amendment would require voter approval before the city could sell publicly owned land to private parties when the land is valued at more than $1 million and before the city could offer sales and/or property tax subsidies/incentives ( Tax Increment Financing ) to...

Draft Scope of Work for the Inwood Rezoning Proposal A map from the Draft Scope of Work indicating red projected development sites (most likely) and blue potential development sites (less likely) by the year 2032. The de Blasio administration predicts its proposed rezoning of Inwood will stimulate the creation of 4,348 new apartments by 2032, of which a portion would be rent-restricted under the city’s mandatory inclusionary housing policy , according to a city document released last Friday. The rezoning is also expected to create 1,135,032 square feet of commercial space, 472,685 square feet of community facility space , and result in a loss of 50,614 square feet of industrial space. To give a sense of the scale, there are more apartments anticipated in the East New York rezoning area , but fewer in the downtown Far Rockaway rezoning area . The document in question is the rezoning’s Draft Scope of Work, which describes the details of the proposal, projects the rezoning’s develop...

Craigslist Apartment Listings Imagined as Billboards

Image
Driving into the city on I-95, just before the exit for 676, a steadily-rotating collection of Visit Philly billboards welcomes visitors to the city. " Run the steps like nobody's watching ," reads one, accompanied by a black-and-white photo of a dancer in mid-leap at the top of the steps at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. " There's no jawn like home ," reads another, a sunset photo of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge floating above the visitor's bureau's cutesy " With Love, Philadelphia xoxo signature along the bottom." Visit Philly recently held a contest for residents of Philadelphia to create their own billboard to shuffle into the rotation, and although the winner has already been selected, you can still create-your-own 'billboard' on the Write-A-Billboard app, to share with friends and family on social media (albeit on a slightly smaller scale ). Just because Renters Week has gone by doesn't mean we can't have a litt...
