WBJ Talk Back In The July 19, 2010 Issue

“I hope Pulaski will comply with [the] federally mandated Complete Streets Initiative, in that roadway has bike lanes and sidewalks meet ADA guidelines. Don’t take cues from Rhode Island, whose recent $1 billion spent in transportation ‘improvements’ have intentionally ignored these legal requirements, unless you want to reverse the gains in federal sanctions and legal defense.”

Labann on an article in our MetroWest495 Biz e-mail newsletter on planned construction on Pulaski Boulevard in Bellingham.

“Architectural firms are famous for underpaying the vast majority of their employees. If they were more honest about compensation and profit sharing, they might actually get better performance. Young architects in particular are routinely overworked and see slim to none, when it comes to bonuses or raises to even keep up with inflation. These are lean times. It appears as though the VPs and partners are going to have to actually work for their pay this time.”

ckarchitect on a WBJ Daily report item on declining architectural profits.

“I believe the top stories are: The oil disaster, which will impact the entire country one way or another… and the depression/recession. With real unemployment still over 20 percent…we are actually falling deeper into financial disaster.”

Matt LaBarre commenting on the WBJ’s LinkedIn discussion thread about the top business stories for the first six months of 2010.
