(continued on page 5) BUSINESS Palo Alto’s money trees Not just a thing of beauty, greenery boosts the economy, research says by Jocelyn Dong rees — the heart and fiber of Palo Alto. Trees create the T famed character of the city’s residential boulevards and serve as the symbol of Palo Alto. At Christmas, there’s a whole lane dedicated to them. Palo Alto’s love affair with trees goes back to the founding of the city, so it’s no wonder that Palo Alto’s No. 1 tree group, Canopy, has invited a renowned expert to extol the virtues of the foliage this Saturday as the kickoff to Arbor Month in Palo Alto. But hers will be no poetic reading, nor botanical lecture. Instead, research social scientist Kathy Wolf of the University of Washington will present research that goes beyond Nicholas Wright the beauty — exploring how trees stimulate the economy. According to Wolf, money really does grow on trees. Wolf’s research has shown a con- nection between shoppers’ attitudes Mayor Jim Burch (second from left) and City Manager Frank Benest talk with residents at Palo Alto Cafe over coffee and orange juice Wednesday. and tree-lined business districts.

  • Many Thanks to Many People by Paul R. Judy
    HarmonyTM FORUM OF THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA INSTITUTE NUMBER 7 • OCTOBER 1998 Many Thanks to Many People To subscribe to Harmony or provide support to the Institute, contact: Symphony Orchestra Institute 1618 Orrington Avenue, Suite 318 Evanston, IL 60201 Tel: 847.475.5001 Fax: 847.475.2460 e-mail: [email protected] www.soi.org ©1998 by the Symphony Orchestra Institute. All rights reserved. vii Many Thanks to Many People The Symphony Orchestra Institute was activated in the fall of 1995 as a catalyst for organizational change within the community of North American symphony orchestra organizations. The Institute was a new resident moving into a long- established and tightly bounded community; we were greeted with caution. As we pursued our mission and initiated early programs, we needed to build the trust of many constituencies. After three years, we believe that trust has been established, and that a groundswell of interest and enthusiasm is building in the direction of change which the Institute has fostered. The momentum of this wave arises from the breadth of involvement of many people who have helped undergird the Institute during the past three years. This is a note of thanks to all those people. The Institute’s acceptance by the leadership of other industry institutions was vital. Special personal thanks go to Brad Buckley (Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra), former chair of the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians (ICSOM), his successor Robert Levine (Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra), and their colleagues on the ICSOM governing board, for the early recognition of the Institute, its independence, and its unbiased interest in better- functioning symphony organizations.
