  • Waterfront Setback Measurements
    Madison | Lake Delton | Milwaukee | Chicago MEMORANDUM DATE: January 15, 2010 TO: Amy Supple, Landmark X, LLC FROM: Mark Huber, P.E. SUBJECT: Edgewater Waterfront Setback Measurements BT Squared, Inc. measured waterfront setback distances for several development lots adjacent to the Edgewater Hotel on June 4, 2009. A summary of the waterfront setback measurements is provided in Table 1. In accordance with instructions from the City of Madison, the waterfront setback distances were measured from the Lake Mendota ordinary high-water mark (OHM) elevation of 850.7 to the nearest structure (36-inches above grade) or the main building on each development lot. We also measured setback distances for additional development lots between the Edgewater Hotel and the University of Wisconsin Limnology Lab. For development lots between the Limnology Lab and 233 West Lake Lawn Place, the measurements were made using an online Dane County GIS mapping tool, which is based on 2005 aerial photography. All of the measurements that we collected are summarized on Table 2.

By focusing on one particular city, Nottingham, I formulate an analysis of the place that cinema has occupied in the city's history. Utilising the local press as the primary source enables me to situate the discourses on the cinema building and the practice of cinema-going within the broader socio-cultural contexts and history of the city.

  • A Global History of Co-Operative Business
    A GLOBAL HISTORY OF CO-OPERATIVE BUSINESS Co-operatives provide a different approach to organizing business through their ideals of member ownership and democratic practice. Every co-operative member has an equal vote regardless of his or her own personal capital investment. The contemporary significance of co-operatives was highlighted by the United Nations declaration of 2012 as the International Year of Co-operatives. This book provides an international perspective on the development of co- operatives since the mid-nineteenth century, exploring the economic, political, and social factors that explain their varying fortunes and transformation into different forms. By looking at what co-operatives are; how they have changed; the develop- ments as well as the persecutions of the co-operative movement; and how it is an important force in promoting development and self-sufficiency in non-industrialized areas, this book provides valuable insight not only to academics, but also to prac- titioners and policy makers. Greg Patmore is Emeritus Professor of Business and Labour History and the Chair of the Co-operatives Research Group at the University of Sydney, Australia. He is a member of the International Co-operative Alliance (Geneva) Global 300 Project. Nikola Balnave is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Marketing and Management and a member of the Centre for Workforce Futures at Macquarie University, Australia. Nikki has been the President of the Australian Society for the Study of Labour History since 2009. She has also been an executive member of the Academic Association of Historians in Australian and New Zealand Business Schools in many capacities since its inception in 2009.

  • Co-Op Scenes by John Allen
    Co-Op Scenes By john Allen Conceived by students, guided by faculty, and boosted by Madison's hippie heritage, campus-area cooperati ve housing is still going strong . In Madison's Mansion Hill District, just to the east of the state Capitol, a vast, pale gray home looms above a tiny park. At the lot's southeast corner, a bronze plaque, placed there by the city in 1976, honors the neighborhood's significance. This area, it proclaims, was once populated by the city's elite -legislators, lawyers, and captains of industry. "The seed of the Wisconsin Idea," the sign states, "may have been planted by informal discussion and from associations among these neighbors when they cooper­ ated to determine policy and direct the course of events." But on a tree above and behind this plaque there's another, far less grand sign - hand-lettered, in black paint on gray wood - identifYing the home's current occu­ pants: Hypatia Co-op. The residents are members of Madison Community Coopera­ tives (MCC), and they do not command vast sums of wealth or write the state's laws. But they do cooperate to live out their own Wisconsin Idea legacy, one created on - and off- campus. 12 BADGER Insider Foundations requirements for membership, responsi­ England, the principles lay out a set of bilities, and benefits. guidelines for how an ideal co-op should One name dominated the early history of Co-op housing wasn't invented at work, promoting centralized ownership, campus-area co-ops: H arold Groves.
