How did a 15-acre contaminated harbour area in Victoria, B.C., once nicknamed "Darkside," become Dockside Green, the world's most sustainable development? This book explains how community connection and sustainability can be achieved by an inclusive, responsible, innovative, and self-sustaining development. From its inception in 2001 to its ongoing development in 2019, author Kim Alison Fowler shares the successes and failures of Dockside Green's design, construction, operations, and lessons learned. Fowler, the original project manager and sustainability planner, was guided by visionary principles based on the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) model that successfully integrated a New Urbanism mix of residential and commercial use with its adjoining industrial working harbour. The question remains-world leading sustainability was built, has proven to be successful, and is loved by those who live and work there-yet has not been substantially replicated. Why? The answers lie inside these pages.
Three beautiful innocent, brothers, excited to go fight for their country. What happens while there, changes them forever. Their minds and bodies will never be the same. God bless their sacrifices....
Can a blunt pragmatist and a hopeful romantic design a perfect relationship? Caroline Winters' architectural career is her top priority. Her Number One rule has always been 'No Relationships'. But when she's selected as the lead designer of the Calderone Industries office complex, that rule is put to the test when she must work with the owner's son. He is artistic and gorgeous but why won't he let her do the job she's qualified to do? Charles Calderone is a connoisseur of all fine things and knows there's more to life than just a job. His VP position in the family business has always had its challenges, but this architect is driving him to distraction. She is talented and beautiful but has the infuriating habit of confronting him on every design decision! Tempers flare and sparks fly as their professional and personal lives collide. Can they find a way to navigate through their endless power struggles to complete this project successfully? Or will both their careers end up in ruins? Designing Love, Book Three in the Calderone Family Romance series, is a smart and sassy stand-alone romcom.
