A quick shout out to Neil Goldman our project superintendent and resident Passive House retrofit specialist. Neil was on the team of professionals who collaborated on the creation of the Passive Rowhouse Manual, and is currently working on a deep energy retrofit to an existing early 20th Century Stone home in Swarthmore. Along with some other panelists, he will be presenting some of his work this Friday 11/12 8:15AM at the AIA Philadelphia Forum on Affordable Housing: Combatting our New ‘Gravity’ with Passive (Aggressive) Efforts. Be sure to check it out at the link in our bio!!

We saw these photos from @fowissahickon and had to reshare. The Henry Avenue Bridge has always been a place of reflection for us. Designed by Modjeski and Masters, where our grandfather Hanson was a partner, this bridge sits beautifully within the landscape of Wissahickon trail.
