This is Day 123 of the Slow Home Project.
I wanted to share some great coverage that our Slow Home Project just received in the Denver Infill Blog . The post was written by Caroline Tracey, a guest contributor and college student from Denver in the Urban Studies program at Yale University.
The Denver Infill Blog covers news, ideas, and commentary about urbanism in Denver. It was created by in 2004 by Ken Schroeppel, an urban planner who lives and works in Downtown Denver. I came across Ken’s blog while we were all working on Denver’s housing market last month and was impressed with what he was doing. His mission statements seemed to align nicely with our Slow Home philosophy:
- To inspire Denver citizens to envision and strive for exceptional urbanism in their city and region
- To inform and educate on topics relating to urban planning and city-building
- To serve as an online resource of notable urban projects, plans, policies, and programs throughout Denver
- To promote and showcase Denver and its opportunities to the world
- To advocate for positive changes to Denver’s existing and future built environment.
I also want to welcome to all of the visitors to our site from the Denver Infill Blog.
As you can see from our recent posts we are currently working on the Miami housing market (which from the results of the first week, does not seem to be as well designed as yours). If you are interested in the work our group did on Denver I have assembled some links:
Week One was about analyzing apartment loft projects and started on Day 90

Finally, on Day 111 we started Week Four which consisted of a preliminary analysis of the results of our survey and announced the winners of the Slow Home Awards in Denver.

We would all be interested in your comments on the work.
