Frank/Kermit:
I've developed several concept papers on how government housing can become
"Public Trust Housing" by emphasizing human capital and access to services,
on-site CTCs, broadband in the building, and broadband broadcast to the
surrounding neighborhood.
And a piece on the retrofit of the Charles Hayes Family Investment Center
("FIC") into a studio for the development of Internet and work skills that can
be
distributed at CHA and HUD developments throughout Chicago.
If anyone would like a copy of these concept papers, simply drop me a line.
