This plan for public art along the trail culminates several years of discussion about how the trail will be built and how it will transform the community. This plan provides a blueprint for celebrating the opening of the trail with artworks by artists from throughout the region, and for allowing art to find a unique place in the life of the trail as time goes on.1 The Legacy Trail will be a nine-mile walking and biking trail leading from the Issac Murphy Memorial Art Garden in the East End, and other areas downtown, to the Kentucky Horse Park. The trail is a significant component of Lexington’s Greenway Master Plan. Over time it will extend to Georgetown to the north and to the Kentucky River to the south. Downtown, it will connect to the Town Branch Trail, which will lead into the countryside northwest of the urban core.

ABSTRACT OF THESIS CONSTRUCTING COLDSTREAM: SUSTAINABILITY AND THE POLITICS OF LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT This thesis explores the evolution of the Coldstream Research Campus, a high- tech research park operated by the University of Kentucky. Conceived of in the late 1980s and built in 1992, Coldstream was expected to become the „economic engine‟ of central Kentucky through the commercialization of applied scientific and technological research coming out of the university. Twenty years later, with Coldstream having failed to live up to expectations, the university initiated the process of updating the Coldstream Master Plan to incorporate a decided emphasis on the concept of sustainability. Through a mix of archival research and semi-structured interviews, this thesis argues that the newfound emphasis on sustainability is important insofar as it opens up the possibility for perpetuating the existence of the Coldstream Research Campus as a real estate development, even in spite of its failures in other arenas.

  • Bluegrass Advantage in Animal Sciences and the Equine Industry December 2018
    330 East Main St. Lexington, KY 40507 Ph. (859) 254-4447 LocateinLexington.com Bluegrass Advantage in Animal Sciences and the Equine Industry December 2018 Animal sciences focuses on the production and management of livestock and domestic animals. Animal scientists apply biological, physical, and social sciences to understand and study animals’ physiology, behavior, welfare, nutrition, genetics, and diseases. The animal sciences industry is becoming increasingly important as consumers seek higher quality food and finite land limits food production for the world’s growing population. These issues and others offer opportunities for quality, high-paying jobs and require innovative animal scientists. The equine industry is an important part of animal sciences, particularly for Lexington. According to VisitLEX, there are approximately 150 horse farms in Lexington and about 450 in the region. Horse farms typically focus on a specific horse breed, and farms in the Bluegrass Region tend to specialize in breeding and training Thoroughbred horses for racing. In addition to these farms, Lexington is home to the Keeneland Race Track, the Red Mile Harness Track, the National Horse Show, the Kentucky Horse Park, the International Museum of the Horse, the Land Rover Kentucky Three Day Event, and equestrian retirement facilities such as Old Friends Farm. Nearly 80,000 direct and indirect jobs are supported by Kentucky’s horse industry and the University of Kentucky has become a leader in animal science and equine research to support this robust sector. The equine industry is also is prominent in Lexington’s culture. Driving through the city, visitors will encounter 82 unique art horses, with another 57 art horses indoors.
