We Need Our Own Andrew Carnegie Thought of a Permanent Local Concert Hall Remains Enticing The Voice of the West Village WestView News VOLUME 14, NUMBER 1 JANUARY 2018 $1.00 We Need Our Own Andrew Carnegie thought of a permanent local concert hall remains enticing. Yes, our audience is very gray and, I think, that is not just because these concerts are free to seniors but because our audience mostly learns about the concerts from the pages of WestView. Doorman-guarded condo towers do not accept WestView; you either have to own a townhouse or live in a rent-regulated tenement to get WestView. Our younger staffers lecture me continu- ously on ‘social media’ and they are doing things to make us available online, which I don’t understand and am impatient to learn. But still, you must write words that have to be read whether it is on a computer CLOSED TO PRAYER, OPEN TO INSPIRATION: Again on Saturday, December 23rd, the shuttered St. Veronica Church was opened and screen or on paper. filled for a concert sponsored by WestView News in its efforts to create a permanent West Village concert hall free to seniors.

  • International Association of Culinary Professionals 26Th Annual Conference April 21-24, 2004 Baltimore, Maryland
    International Association of Culinary Professionals 26th Annual Conference April 21-24, 2004 Baltimore, Maryland General Session “Is Globalization Changing The Way The World Eats?” Speaker: Dr. Tyler Cowen Thank you all, and good morning. Let’s start with slide one. That’s me, the obsessive, and obsessive is the key word here. I’m food obsessive. I have several obsessions actually, but today we talk about food. When I get home, my wife will ask me, “how did it go?”, and my answer will be, “the breakfast was excellent!” So I travel a great deal, I cook a great deal, and I write an on-line dining guide. I’m one of those people who lives to eat. For a long time now, I have been writing about culture, and creativity, and diversity, and now I am writing about food. And my interest in food really stems from my life, and that is from my obsessive nature. I wanted to be going out there, eating in the best places possible. With this attitude every meal counts. But if every meal is going to count, you have to know how to eat. So let’s go to the next slide. I have a theory of food. It’s a fairly simple theory, it’s not perfect, and there are some exceptions. But what makes for great food? Three items: You need competition, experimentation, and pride. Competition – if you are in a strange city, or strange country, and you want to know where to eat, go to the cuisine that is represented by the greatest number of restaurants.

  • Good City Brewing Commits to Century City Business Park
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Good City Brewing Commits to Century City Business Park MILWAUKEE (July 25, 2018) – Good City Brewing announced it is moving its corporate offices and warehouse operations to the Century City Business Park located on Milwaukee’s northwest side. Good City is the first business to commit to the high profile city-led redevelopment project. Located near W. Capitol Drive and N. 31st on Milwaukee’s Northwest Side, Century City 1 is a 53,160 sf flex industrial building that was co-developed by General Capital Group and the City of Milwaukee. The facility represents the first phase of a planned business park initiated by the City of Milwaukee to spur economic development in the central city. The state of the art facility has not had a permanent occupant since its completion in 2016. Good City Co-Founder Dan Katt notes that breweries are often the first movers in spurring economic development. “From our Farwell location that had sat vacant for 5 years to our future downtown location that is literally being built from the ground up, we have been about breathing life into underutilized spaces. Our conviction is that the current downtown renaissance should create ripple effects benefitting the entire city. “ According to Katt, Century City provides an immediate business solution. “We’ve expanded our brewery 4 times in the 2 years since we opened our doors, and we are simply out of space on the east side. The demand for our beer, especially our flagship Motto Mosaic Pale Ale, and the growth that comes with it, is very exciting.” Pending approval from City leaders, Good City will purchase the building through an affiliate entity and begin to move operations into the building immediately.
