A good transition from tile to surrounding materials is a sure indication of a professional instalation. In this article we explore the the different options for baseboards, door casings, steps, transitions to different materials and expansion and joint control.
Los Angeles City Council upheld the Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
for the redevelopment of the 1913 Herald Examiner building on the
southern end of downtown. The move effectively pushed forward the
long-delayed scheme, which is being developed by Hearst Communications.
The design brings a fresh perspective to a standard service amenity –
the 298,786-square-foot structure includes 900 parking spaces on six
levels above grade and two below grade – and takes it to a higher level
that actually strengthens the urban fabric with street-level retail and
café, spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and the city, a garden,
and a sense of personal safety.
Arquitectonica’s Las Vegas gamble is finally paying off big with two
new projects on the Strip. The Miami-based firm’s $3 billion,
2,998-room Cosmopolitan Resort & Casino is currently under
construction on Las Vegas Boulevard, next to the Bellagio.
The cash-and-stock deal was approved by 53 percent of Washington
Group's outstanding shareholders during a special meeting in Boise,
ending weeks of speculation that many shareholders believed Washington
Group's offer was too low.
Even as the trendy loft and condo market cools a bit in downtown Los
Angeles, the glass-and-steel skyscrapers are filling up and street life
is picking up after dark. Los Angeles architect J. Peter Devereaux is
bringing his 150-employee firm to the heart of the city's financial
district.
