The Midterm review came three-weeks early last Monday.

It took somewhere near 2 hours to hang the 155 pages around 5am Sunday night. My thumbs were worn raw.

At the prodding of my instructor, Andrew Macnair, I am taking on a challenge/experiment that no one else in the school is dumb enough to try: the goal is to design 100 buildings on 100 sites in Manhattan by December 15th. In one month, I've only done 20 buildings...two more months, 80 mor buildings. 

Last night I went out with my very good friends, Wayne Mortenson (left) and Larry Fabbroni (right). Larry was National President of the American Institute of Architecture Students, AIAS, when I was the Minnesota Chapter President. Wayne was the National President when I was the National Director for the Midwest.

Wayne is now married and working on three masters degrees at Washington University in St. Louis. Larry is living in Brooklyn and working at an architecture firm in Midtown called Ehrenkrantz Eckstut & Kuhn Architects.

They don't get better than these guys. 

Avery Hall is home to the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation, GSAPP. This is where I "live".
