CALL FOR HELP- RIVERWEST VANDALISM
Hi All:Nikolai of Pragmatic Construction here.We had almost all of our first floor windows on our two Riverwest Green homes broken AGAIN this morning. Someone took a bat or a crowbar and blew out all the hyper-efficient (and expensive) triple-paned glass around 4 am. We have had a full year of targeted vandalism including Anarchy tags, broken plumbing, windows, etc. If anyone knows anything about these events- please help us out. It is so demoralizing to try to create something beautiful and…See More

It was nice having a chance to talk to you and Steve a bit about Transition. I'm glad to see you plan on coming to the Transition Hub meeting on Monday. I'd love for you to get a sense of our organization and members. Also, we'll connect with Tom soon about presentation opps. See you soon! Christie

I was kind of perplexed about how I failed to hear about what you all were up to before now! Steve Servais (my partner in Pragmatic) and I have been discussing the need for such an organization for a long time. Now that we see it is already up and running, we want to help out however we can. I am pretty sure we both will be at the meeting on the 25th. See you then! Nikolai 414.736.1820

You may know Tom Brandstedder, which is how you have come to Transition. If not, then how did you hear about Transition Milwaukee? I'm very excited to have you aboard, and have been speaking with some folks within the Transition network about the possibility of assembling a design charrette for self-sustaining urban homesteads, and of course, Pragmatic came to mind! Your firm's work is heads and tails above the rest. If you'd like to connect further, please, feel free to give me a call, or next Monday, January 25th Transition is having their monthly HUB meeting at the Urban Ecology Center at 7:00PM. You can get to know many others there as well.
Thanks much, and looking forward to meeting you.
