Good point. If nothing else, we are intentional. Herman On Mon, May 20, 2013 at 10:08 AM, R Williams <rcwmbw@yahoo.com> wrote:
As I read Terry's announcement about the good news at the 4750 Greenrise building I noticed that he did not use the name "Kemper" a single time. Thinking back, I don't think I've heard him or anyone on the staff mention that name to identify the building, as we used to, in several years. Being the imaginal educators that we are, who understand the power of symbol, I assume all this is intentional on Terry's part. Indicative, I'm sure, of the new times and the new ICA.

I am delighted to announce that, with your help, this project won the Ford Community Green Grant today at the Chicago Green Festival, A Project of Green America and Global Exchange. There are similar Festivals happening in Los Angeles (Oct 19-20), San Francisco (Nov 9-10), Washington, DC (Sept 21-22), and New York (April 19-21). The prize was for $5,000. If my attachment is successfully transmitted, you can see a photo from the awards ceremony. Joseph is the tall one in the middle surrounded by supporters.
On a related note, we also received notice last week that the GreenRise Building "solar project" has been awarded a $359,000 grant from the Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation to install renewable energy panels on our rooftop. The building at 4750 Sheridan is becoming a VERY high profile embodiment of "green culture" to complement our neighborhood sustainability work across the 77 community areas of Chicago.
