Raymond C. Andrew President's Message
RFUF RETIRED FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, INC. January 2008 Volume 32, Number 2 Board of Directors 2007-2008 President’s Message Raymond C. Andrew t is hard to believe that our fall RFUF programs have ended. Time sure PRESIDENT I flies! Program Chair and President-Elect Robert Mansell has maintained the RFUF tradition of selecting outstanding speakers for programs. The Robert Mansell attendance has been good, with a high of 95. PRESIDENT ELECT Treasurer William Van Dyke informs me that we now have 250 members for John L. Foltz the 2007-08 year. Even though we have had an increase in membership and SECRETARY members attending our Wednesday programs, there is still space for more members and new members to attend. The facilities of the Harn Museum William Van Dyke, Jr. Chandler Auditorium are excellent for RFUF programs. I would like for TREASURER each member to consider inviting persons eligible for membership in RFUF to be your guest at a meeting. Bring them to coffee and donuts before the Charles E. Taylor meeting. This will give them an opportunity to look at RFUF and perhaps PAST PRESIDENT become active members. Nothing beats the personal touch. Roy J. Bolduc Some of our members may not be aware of the time and energy that Madelyn Robert F. Lanzillotti Lockhart uses in getting out our RFUF Newsletter twice a year. I have Robert A. Levitt received many compliments on the contents of the last Newsletter. Let Jacqueline Orlando Madelyn know if you like the newsletter. Arnold C. Penland Ann P. Smith Besides the Newsletter, Madelyn has made many contributions to RFUF.

Appendix A: Shadows
Appendix A: Shadows Appendix A: Shadows A. INTRODUCTION As discussed in Chapter 6, “Shadows,” a detailed analysis comparing shadows in the future with the proposed project with the shadows in the future with the Previously Approved Project and with the Expanded Development Scenario was undertaken on each of the four analysis days, consistent with the methodology outlined in the CEQR Technical Manual. For a substantial number of open space and historic resources, the proposed project would not result in any incremental increase in shadow. In addition, there are a number of resources that would receive incremental shadow for fewer than 30 minutes. These resources are described in detail in this appendix. B. ASSESSMENT OF INCREMENTAL SHADOWS: PROPOSED PROJECT COMPARED WITH PREVIOUSLY APPROVED PROJECT OPEN SPACES THAT WOULD NOT RECEIVE ANY INCREMENTAL SHADOW THE SHEFFIELD RESIDENTIAL PLAZAS These plazas, located on the block bounded by Eighth and Ninth Avenues and West 56th and 57th Streets, are fully in existing shadow during the first 15 minutes of the December 21 analysis day, when the proposed project’s shadow would otherwise affect them. No incremental shadow would fall on these spaces at any time of year, and no shadow impacts would occur as a result of the proposed project. MCCAFFREY PLAYGROUND This playground is located on the north side of West 43rd Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenues. Shadow from the proposed project would be long enough to reach this playground from 6:57 AM to 7:15 AM on the June 21 analysis day; however, the portions of the space that could be affected are already in shadow at this time, and so no incremental shadow would occur.

Chapter 6: Open Space A. INTRODUCTION
Chapter 6: Open Space A. INTRODUCTION Using City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) criteria, an open space analysis is presented in order to determine whether the Proposed Actions would have either a direct or indirect impact on a study area’s open spaces. A direct effect on an open space occurs if a proposed action would cause the physical loss of a public open space, change the use of an open space so that it no longer serves the same user population, limit public access to an open space, or cause increased noise or air pollution emissions, odors, or shadows that would temporarily or permanently affect its usefulness. If an action would add population to an area that population would typically place a demand on existing open space resources. Indirect effects may occur when the population generated by the proposed action would be sufficient to noticeably diminish the ability of an area’s open space to serve the existing or future population. Because of the substantial development that would occur as a result of the Proposed Actions, including the Development Site and the Additional Housing Sites, a detailed analysis of open space resources was conducted. This chapter assesses existing conditions (both users and resources) and compares conditions in the Future with and without the Proposed Actions to determine potential impacts. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS The Proposed Actions would result in a direct significant adverse impact on open spaces due to shadows. The full build out of the Proposed Actions would also result in a significant adverse indirect active and total open space impact in the Development Site Study Area.

2015 Annual Report
INVESTORS REAL ESTATE TRUST 2015 ANNUAL REPORT President & CEO Timothy Mihalick A transformational year for IRET Fellow shareholders, In a significant shift in strategy, IRET has disposed of most of our commercial office and retail properties to continue on our focused strategy of multifamily residential and healthcare properties. I believe this move will greatly streamline our business model and help accelerate growth. The Company continues to demonstrate its ability to grow topline revenue, manage controllable expenses, and dispose of non-core assets. Additionally, we have an impressive $205 million of new projects coming online in just the next six months! We think these initiatives will result in a more growth-oriented portfolio, provide greater financial flexibility, strengthen net operating income, and make us a leader in our markets. “Management is transforming our portfolio to improve the predictability of earnings and cash flow by disposing of our office and retail properties, and concentrating efforts on apartments and healthcare. New developments and acquisitions in these segments will help propel growth and create an exciting future for IRET.” The majority of the proceeds from these sales will be utilized to reduce leverage and provide capital to fund further acquisitions and developments. We will of course provide updates on these initiatives over the coming months in fiscal 2016. (Statements about IRET’s future expectations and plans are “forward-looking statements,” subject to risks and uncertainties as disclosed more fully in the attached Annual Report on Form 10-K, under “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”) Stock Information $7.17 stock price 138,455,349 shares and units outstanding $993 M market cap 7.3% dividend yield $0.13 common share quarterly distribution $0.52 annualized common share distribution Over the past two years, IRET has carefully invested into Western North Dakota, and the energy region known as the “Bakken”.

Infrastructure Asset Management Review of Tall Residential Buildings Of
Journal of Built Environment, Technology and Engineering, Vol. 3 (September) 2017 ISSN 0128-1003 ASSET MANAGEMENT REVIEW OF TALL RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS IN MAJOR CITIES: CHICAGO, HONG KONG AND SINGAPORE Raymond Cheng Email: [email protected] Reader, Industrial Doctorate (IndD) Programme, Asia e University, Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA Ivan Ng Email: [email protected] Executive Director, Russia Capital Investment Corporation Limited, HONG KONG ABSTRACT There is only one residential skyscraper within China’s top 100 tallest buildings in the crowded 24-million- population city of Shanghai, China (and eleven residential skyscrapers among the 134 tallest buildings, i.e. those taller than 150 metres), whereas there are comparatively a lot more skyscrapers used for residential purposes in equally densely populated cities like Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and, of course, Chicago and New York. This paper, hence, looked, from a historical perspective, how the development of tall buildings in Chicago, Hong Kong and Singapore have evolved to become what we see today. How does the tall building development history of a city help forge the people’s view in terms of living in skyscrapers? Would such help provide explanations and hints as to the future development of skyscrapers in the other cities like Shanghai? Keywords: Tall building, skyscraper, high-rise, development history Learning from the American experience The mythical story of the Tower of Babel tells us that how height, in itself, since the beginning of known history, means power to human beings. But before Elisha Otis revolutionized and refined the safety of the elevator by inventing the elevator brakes1 in 1852, both the Greek mathematician Archimedes of Syracuse and King Louis XV of France could only have envisioned their great ideas through primitive, man-powered, inefficient mechanical lifting devices back in their days.
