Orders of Photographic Identity Construction
2011-11-07 23:54:00 In 1865, photojournalist Alexander Gardner had six of the accused Lincoln conspirators brought up on the deck of the USS Montauk, an ironclad monitor anchored in the Potomac River, and posed them for a series of famous photographs. Irrespective of their historic value, these photographs additionally reveal Gardner?s desire for an ?artistic? expression in his photographic work. The accused men were dressed in coats and ties, hair combed and styled, then positioned against the iron turret for the various shots. The above photograph of Lewis Payne then presents quite a conflict of photographer, portrait subject and image. First, we have a young man accused of savagely attacking Secretary of State William Seward with a knife and conspiring with John Wilkes Booth to overthrow the Federal government. Moreover, the photographer appears to disguise Payne?s predicament, draping him in beige overcoat and hat. The Federal guard?s hands, holding a bayoneted rifle, are just visible at edge...

Another half-off sale on Glencoe new construction
2011-04-25 23:30:00 About six weeks ago I posted on two new construction Glencoe homes that eventually sold for steep discounts from their original asking price. When we first visited 501 Greenleaf (pictured above) in Glencoe, back in July of 2006, the home was still under construction and priced at $4,295,000. It sold last November for $2,050,000, less than half the original asking price, as a bank-approved short sale. That's a better result, both in percentage and absolute terms, than 1005 Sheridan in Glencoe, which sold at 60% off its original price $5.3M asking price. During the summer of 2006 we monitored more than 800 new single-family homes under construction on the North Shore. More tales from the crypt, later....

Federal Construction Contract Claims Must be Evaluated Fairly
2011-03-23 20:46:00 By: Michael H. Payne The growth of contracting by negotiation or “best value” procurement, has had a chilling effect on the submission of claims by construction contractors. There seems to be a growing fear that claims are frowned upon by contracting officers and that they will be counted against a contractor during future proposal evaluations. This fear, in my opinion, is misplaced provided that the claims are not frivolous and are technically and legally supported. The Contract Disputes Act of 1978, 41 U.S.C. § 601 et. seq., requires contractors to certify that claims in excess of $100,000 are “made in good faith,” that all “supporting data are accurate and complete to the best of [the contractor's] knowledge and belief,” and that the amount requested “accurately reflects the contract adjustment for which the contractor believes the government is liable.” 41 U.S.C. § 605(c)(1). A contractor who is willing to make that ce...
Glencoe new construction sold for less than half the original price
2011-03-14 05:43:00 I spent a great deal of time in the summer of 2006 visiting new construction homes on the North Shore, and recently decided to take a look at the sales history of some of those homes. This home at 260 Wentworth Ave, in Glencoe, was nearing completion when I first visited it, in July of 2006. It was clear, at first sight, that it would be unlike any of the 100s of new construction homes I'd seen on the North Shore that summer. The elaborate stone, iron and copper detailing on the exterior of the home gave a glimpse into the ornate and idiosyncratic interior. The interior was a riot of the unusual, as I recall, clearly expensive but...

Court dumps Quinn's construction plan, including CTA's capital fu
2011-01-27 03:57:00 An appellate court today ruled that Gov. Quinn's capital construction plan was unconstitutional. From the Tribune:The justices ruled the problem with the law is that it violated the state's basic constitutional tenet that legislation must address a single subject only. They wrote that wide-ranging issues in one of four bills passed in 2009 failed to have a "natural and logical connection."The state had planned to use proceeds from video poker and higher taxes on booze and candy to fund the $31 billion program. The CTA already was slated to get $253 million this year of a promised $1.3 billion....

The new math for North Shore new construction
2011-01-17 16:57:00 During most of 2006 I actively tracked the status of every new construction home on Chicago's North Shore. In May of 2006 developer Cypress Group was offering 1328 Elmwood Ave in East Wilmette for $2,100,00, and that was toward the low end of the new construction price range in that part of town. The site had been purchased as a teardown a year earlier for $735,000, and the developer seemed to be following the "rule of thirds" that then drove acquisition and pricing decisions. Site cost would be a third of the selling price, hard costs for the new home another third, and the final third would be profit less soft costs. For a while developers were making healthy...

Should a Federal Construction Contractor File a Bid Protest?
2011-01-03 20:09:00 By: Michael H. Payne To protest or not to protest, that is the question. That may sound a little like William Shakespeare, but it actually is a question frequently posed by federal contractors. Particularly in the world of “best value” contracting, where subjective evaluation factors are applied to make source selections, contractors often feel that award decisions are unfair. A bid protest offers the possibility of relief in the form of corrective action by the agency, or in the form of a favorable protest decision by the agency, the GAO, or the United States Court of Federal Claims. Successful protests, however, require knowledge of procedural rules, an understanding of applicable procurement regulations, and knowledge of the extensive body of GAO and federal court decisions. Put simply, it is a waste of time and money to file a protest that is untimely or that does not lay out the basis for the protest properly. Similarly, it is very important to know whether a proc...

New construction condos still popping up in Albany Park
2010-08-11 23:40:00 Residential construction hasn't hit a stand-still just yet, not even in a neighborhood like Albany Park.

Listings mention features and finishes like island kitchens, 42-inch maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite and quartz countertops, master showers with steam and body sprays, whirlpool tubs, in-unit laundry, and front (south-facing) balconies.
