Visit BizNewOrleans.com to watch videos from this month’s issue, including: The State of Real Estate ctober is our annual real estate issue and I’m excited to share what we’ve learned from local O professionals that live this industry every day — from those working to revitalize neighbor- hoods and provide affordable housing, to those closing the biggest commercial deals of the year. If you’d like to learn more, I encourage you to attend the 7th annual Economic & Real Estate Forecast Symposium, presented by Gulf Coast Bank & Trust Company on Tuesday Oct. 10 from 12:30 to 5 p.m. at Loyola University’s Roussel Hall. At the symposium, top industry experts examine “New Perspectives on the Changing Economy.” Among the guest speakers scheduled this year is the Chief Economist and Senior Vice President of Research for the National Association of Realtors, Dr. Lawrence Yun. The event will be followed by a business networking social from 5 to 7 p.m. In this issue we’re also excited to have a chat with Saints and Pelicans President, Dennis Lauscha — who, among other things, shares his personal pregame ritual — as well as an interesting piece by Dr. Patrick Waring, founder of the Pain Intervention Center in Metairie, who shares his thoughts on Louisiana’s new opioid laws. Finally, as we look toward the holidays, I encourage you — if you haven’t started already — to begin thinking about how your company will be giving back this year. Every month we profile a different nonprofit in need of your assistance in our “Making a Match” feature. This month it’s the New Orleans Mission, a very worthy cause indeed and a great way to get employees out in the community and making an immediate difference in the lives of others.

For information on how you can help, visit no-hunger.org 18 Biz October 2017 BizNewOrleans.com 19 Publisher’s Note Time to Give s we roll into October and look back on the A events of the past months, there is a great need for support for those who’ve lost so much. I find myself actively giving to charities and people more than ever. With the disastrous events occurring so close to home, and looking around at some of the biggest problems New Orleans is facing, it seems that help is needed everywhere. So now is our time to step up to the plate and give back for all that we received 12 years ago. I’ve nicknamed October 2017, “Donation Month.” This month, focus on supporting a cause, lending a hand and helping someone in need. Whether through financial or human capital, you can make a difference in various and creative ways according to your distinct style and passion. Here at Renaissance Publishing, we have formed a foundation — Renaissance Foundation — to give back via company events. You will begin to see our events with a new logo and tag line, “A Renaissance Foundation Event.” We host nearly 50 events a year, and now ticket proceeds will go to help a deserving cause. To me, giving is rewarding, so this month reward yourself and give.

  • High-Hise Building Oata Base
    High-Hise Building Oata Base Since the inception of the Council, various surveys have been made con­ cerning the location, number of stories, height, material, and use of tall buildings around the world. The first report on these surveys was published in the Council's Proceedings of the First International Conference in 1972. TaU Building Systems and Concepts (Volume SC) brought that information up to date with a detailed survey in 1980. Changes to some of the data were reflected in Developments in TaU Buildings-1983, with further updating in Advances in TaU Buildings (January, 1986), High-Rise Buildings: Recent Progress (November, 1986), and TaU Build­ ings 0/ the World (February, 1987). This present volume provides the newer information more recently received. The original survey was based mainly on information collected from individuals in the major cities of the world. The main criterion for the selection of a city was generally its population. Another criterion was the availability of a Council member or other contact who might provide the needed information. This Appendix updates Table l. Because the data came from so many sourees, complete accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Buildings change names or new ones break ground, and this information is sometimes slow in reaching the Council headquarters. In this sense the survey keeps its nature as a "living document." Additions and corrections to the information presented here are welcomed, and should be brought to the attention of Council Headquarters at Lehigh University. 1003 1004 Second Century of the Skyscraper Table 1: World's TaUest Buildings.
