As the Town of Chapel Hill works to provide more parking while reducing its surface lots downtown, plans for a parking deck on the West End of Franklin Street are being developed.

Town staff presented an updated proposal for a five-level parking deck to the Chapel Hill Town Council on November 20. The deck, located off South Roberson Street and where the West Franklin Basnight Lane and Courtyard lots sit, is estimated to contain more than 450 spaces. The council unanimously approved moving forward with the plans by authorizing the town manager to proceed with financial planning.

In its presentation, town staff said the construction of a deck on the West End would free up the equivalent of five surface parking acres of land, which the town hopes could then be developed into new business.

Chapel Hill mayor Pam Hemminger spoke with WCHLs Aaron Keck following the council meeting. She said while the measure still promotes automobile use instead of alternative forms of transit, the town must improve parking to attract businesses like the health-tech company Well, which recently announced its move to Franklin Street.

We want to encourage to get out of their cars in all kinds of ways. Hemminger said. But the reality is if we build a parking deck on the West End, we can get rid of all these little surface lots, have more office space and add the vibrancy downtown.

Hemminger said adding a deck also would help bring more residents into the West End as well. She said during the town council race this year, she would ask people how they felt about the idea.

I would just ask people on the campaign trail whether they come downtown and would they like a parking deck down there, said Hemminger. [They would say], If I had a parking deck, I would come because I know there would be a place to park. Theres lots of places to park, but its a lot of small places on the West End, which adds to the confusion. With all those the small lots, [drivers] are not sure theyll get a space. Having a deck, youll know where to aim.

The presentation shows Chapel Hill is considering both spaces for lease and an hourly rate for public parking in the deck, like seen in other parking areas downtown.

The next step is a public hearing about the parking deck plans, which is set for the town councils February 12 meeting.

Proposed West End Parking Deck Gets Approval From Chapel Hill Town Council - Chapelboro.com

GLENVILLE --The town has hired an architect to design a new Town Hall to be built on land behind the current building, which will be converted into a town public safety building.

The Town Board voted Wednesday to spend $7,800 for the next phase of design work with CSArch of Albany, which under an earlier contractdeveloped the concept for expanding town government at its existing Glenridge Road location. The Town Board chose that option from among a series of options presented in August.

Town officials have said for years that theyneed to do somethingabout the current building a former movie theater where the offices are oddly configured and located on several different levels. The courts and Police Departmentneedmodernization, and the proposed renovation would expand those departments into the rest of the existing Town hall.

Town Supervisor Chris Koetzle said he hopes the initial design work can move forward quickly.

"I've told them I'd like to have it in time for my State of the Town Address on Jan. 8," Koetzle said. "That might be a little tight, but certainly by the end of January."

Assuming the preliminary design work is accepted by the town, Koetlze said he hopes detailed engineering and architectural design can be done in time to put the project out to bid and start construction next fall. If the new building is ready in late 2021, the town offices would move in, and the renovation work at the current Town Hall would take place in 2022.

"The nice thing is we'll be able to do it in phases," Koetzle said.

Plans call for the town to builda6,300-square-foot structure on a four-acre, town-owned plot that includes a former residence now used by the town historian's office. The land is east of the current Town Hall, and separated from it by the Schenectady County Library property; the properties connect behind the library, though. Between the town properties, the town has 6.5 acres.

"Renovating the existing Town Hall as a public safety building for the police and court functions, and building a new Town Hall/Town Offices building on the adjoining site appears to be the best option for expansion, functionality, practicality and overall cost," the earlier feasibility study concluded.

The feasibility study estimated the total construction costs for renovating the current building and erecting a new building at between $4.75 million and $5.75 million.

The town has an unspent$1.5 million state grantto improve its police station, which Koetzle believes could be applied to the project. The offices moved into the new building would includebuilding and planning, the town clerk, town supervisor, assessing and financial management.

Koetzle said the hope is that between the state grant andcapital funding the town has already set aside, Glenvillewill only need to borrow about $2.5 million, which would be paid off over a number of years.

"I think we're in good shape to do this with little impact on taxpayers," Koetzle said.

A perforated metalfaade developed by UB architecture professor Christopher Romano and Buffalo-based Rigidized Metals Corp. has earned an Architects Newspaper Editors Choice award for Best of Products in thefaade category.

Manipulating light and thin-gauge sheet metal as design materials, thefaade system was first applied in Light/Station, an expansion project for Torn Space Theatre in Buffalo.

Romano and Rigidized continue to advance thefaade research for broader applications.

The AN Best Products Awards are presented across 18 categories, including building materials, acoustics, furnishings, tech and faades. The 2019 award pool included 500 entries from around the world. Winners were selected based onoriginality, innovation, functionality, aesthetics, performance and value. Each category includes one winner, two honorable mentions and one Editors Choice.

Romanos design of the faade for Light/Station also received design awards last year in both the Commercial and Small Project categories from the Western New York chapter of the American Institute of Architects.

Adaptively reusing an abandoned gas mart, Light/Station is a striking, 1,545-square-foot design studio, green room and conference facility for Buffalo-based Torn Space, a critically acclaimed, avant-garde theater company. Nestled in the shadows of historic buildings on Buffalos East Side, Light/Station is a signature addition to the citys urban fabric.

Thefaade system is the result of a long-running partnership between the School of Architecture and Planning and Rigidized Metals, which manufactures deep-textured sheet metal panels for architectural applications.

With a thickness of only 3/64-inch, the paper-thin metal sheets feature tiny holes drilled strategically to capture or emit light, depending on the time of day. Romano and the Rigidized Metals team spent months experimenting with every aspect of the sheet metal, pushing boundaries with each iteration.

The team ran algorithms to generate the hole patterns that would be precision-cut into each piece of sheet metal, testing on smaller prototypes in order to get just the right size hole to allow light to pass through and create the desired effect.

We did everything we could to make cutting holes into metal the most magical experience ever, says Romano, assistant professor of architecture who designed the faade through his firm Studio NORTH Architecture.

It was a laborious process 6.3 miles of cutting on the laser. We maxed out Rigidized Metals fabrication capacity.

Folding the custom-made columns that hold up the buildings exterior required 180 tons of pressure.

Light and history were core components of the design concept from the beginning.

Light serves as the connective tissue for all the components of the faade. Its a material. Its a central element to the multi-layered faade, where the lighting is a layer behind the steel panels, which typically isnt done because its risky, Romano says.

A small team of UB architecture students also worked on the project. Some of the smaller prototypes were developed and tested using the schools digital fabrication equipment under the direction of Daniel Vrana, fabrication manager in UBs Fabrication Workshop and current employee at Studio NORTH Architecture.

The Light/Station project team consisted of Romano asfaade designer supported by Vrana; design assistants Brandon Stone and David Heaton, who both graduated in 2017 from UBs master of architecture program; Rigidized Metals as manufacturer and fabricator; and RP Oak Hill Building Company Inc. as construction manager.

Architecture firms Diamond Schmitt and Tod Williams Billie Tsien have revealed plans to redesign David Geffen Hall at New York's Lincoln Center, two years after Heatherwick Studio's overhaul was scrapped.

TheLincoln Centerfor the Performing Arts and theNew York Philharmonic announced yesterday, 2 December, that David Geffen Hall will be renovated by local studio Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects and Toronto's Diamond Schmitt Architects.

The latter was originally paired with the London's Heatherwick Studio for the masterplan but the project was cancelled in 2017.

In the new venture, Diamond Schmitt will overhaul the New York City concert hall, while Tod Williams Billie Tsien will redesign the public spaces.

The renovation of the music hall, which is the home of the New York Philharmonic orchestra, aims to update the space with improved acoustics and sightlines. The firm is working with Paul Scarbrough of Akustiks for the acoustic design, and Fisher Dachs Associates for the theatre planning and design.

Renovated concert hall "will be intimate, immersive, and adaptable"

"The auditorium is recalibrated to deliver improved sightlines, audience comfort, and superb acoustics from every seat in the house," said Diamond Schmitt project lead Gary McCluskie.

"The new concert hall will be intimate, immersive, and adaptable to host a range of performances of classical compositions and innovative programming."The stage of David Geffen Hall will be moved forward by 25 feet (7.6 metres), and seating capacity will be reduced from 2,738 to 2,200. Seats will be placed closer to the stage and arranged to wrap around it.

Heatherwick's overhaul of New York Philharmonic concert hall scrapped

The stage's ceiling will also be elevated and replaced with an adjustable canopy.

The layout of the original inclined seating dating back to 1962 will also be restored on the orchestra level, adapting an alteration made in 1976.

Additional wrap-around seating will be built around the orchestra section, which will contain a new motorised lift for stage risers for the orchestra. The firm will also improve the centre's ADA accessibility.

Renderings show that the concert hall will be resurfaced with pale wood cladding and curves.

Tod Williams Billie Tsien to expand public spaces

Tod Williams Billie Tsien's redesign of the public spaces includes a new lobby that will be double in size and open up to the outdoors on three of its sides. It will resemble the original layout, and feature a digital streaming wall to show concerts in real-time.

The first floor of David Geffen Hall, called the Grand Promenade, will be also reconfigured with more seating, bar and food service, and will access new promontories overlooking the ground floor.

"By reorganising and reconceiving the concert hall and its public spaces, the interiors of David Geffen Hall will be unified and invigorated," said Williams and Tsien.

"The result will be an experience that is warm, captivating, and exciting," the duo added. "We're thrilled to be part of the team extending the Philharmonic and Lincoln Center's arms to wider audiences for generations to come."

Renovation to add new amenities

A new eatery will also be built in the lobby in the southwest corner, and have both informal and casual dining. A welcome centre will be added to the side of the centre that meets Broadway street.

A community and art installation space, called Sidewalk Studio, will also be located at the corner of the complex at 65th Street and Broadway. Restrooms and two lounges are among other new additions, while existing staff offices will be moved from the ground floor to upstairs.

Tod Williams and Billie Tsien win 2019 Praemium Imperiale for architecture

Other amends to the exterior of David Geffen Hall will comprise new lighting on the upper tier, and the addition of site-specific works on the northern facade.

The new David Geffen Hall is projected to cost $550 million (425 million), and is expected to open in March 2024.

Designed by mid-20th-century American architect Max Abramovitz, David Geffen Hall was originally called Avery Fisher Hall completed in 1962. The 2,738-seat auditorium was renamed in 2015 after entertainment mogul David Geffen donated $100 million (76 million) to fund its transformation.

Proposal replaces Heatherwick Studio masterplan

In the same year, Heatherwick Studio and Diamond Schmitt were picked from 100 firms to replace Foster + Partnerson the project.

The duo was then dropped two years later, with a joint statement from Lincoln Center and the New York Philharmonic released at the time suggesting the proposal to completely gut the concert hall was too drastic.

Diamond Schmitt and Tod Williams Billie Tsien will instead conduct the overhaul in stages. The scheme involves two closures of the hall, with the first closure from May to October 2022 that will result in the initial creation of the redesigned concert hall. A second closure is planned to span from May 2023 until February 2024.

The David Geffen Hall project forms part of an overhaul of the Lincoln Center which opened in 1962 and comprises several rectangular buildings arranged around a plaza and outdoor fountain, designed in a similar style with flat roofs, slender pillars and glazed walls.

The House Judiciary Committee held its first day of impeachment hearings on Wednesday, led by Chairman Jerry Nadler, who represents the West Side of Manhattan and a slice of South Brooklyn.

Four constitutional scholars answered the committees questions regarding whether President Donald Trump made impeachable offenses by attempting to pressure Ukraine into investigating his political opponent.

Some observers expressed concern over how Nadler would handle the committees impeachment hearings after Corey Lewandowskis combative hearing in September, over which Nadler presided, was regarded as a disaster. But Nadler, who normally avoids the use of expletives, said that he wouldnt take any shit alluding to any possible Republican shenanigans that might arise during a closed-door prep meeting with Democrats ahead of the days hearings, according to Politico. And it appears that he kept his word.

There were a few instances in which Republicans on the Judiciary Committee's panel attempted to disrupt the hearing and some of the panels members got heated while taking their allotted five minutes to question the legal scholars present, but Nadler held strong, assertively banging his gavel to keep the days hearings on track.

I think this has actually been a smoother transition than a lot of people thought, Rep. Ted Deutch, a senior member of the Judiciary Committee, told Politico.

On Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi requested that Nadler, along with the chairmen of other committees to begin drafting articles of impeachment against Trump.

The study, published inScience Advances, results from the collaboration between a UB team led by Cedric Boeckx, ICREA professor from the Section of General Linguistics at the Department of Catalan Philology and General Linguistics, and member of the Institute of Complex Systems of the UB (UBICS), and researchers from the team led by Giuseppe Testa, lecturer at the University of Milan and the European Institute of Oncology.

An evolutionary process similar to animal domestication

The idea of human self-domestication dates back to the 19th century. It is the claim that anatomical and cognitive-behavioral hallmarks of modern humans, such as docility or a gracile physiognomy, could result from an evolutionary process bearing significant similarities to the domestication of animals.

The key role of neural crest cells

Earlier research by the team of Cedric Boeckx had found genetic similarities between humans and domesticated animals in genes. The aim of the present study was to take a step further and deliver empirical evidence focusing on neural crest cells. This is a population of migratory and pluripotent cells - able to form all the cell types in a body - that form during the development of vertebrates with great importance in development. "A mild deficit of neural crest cells has already been hypothesized to be the factor underlying animal domestication. Could it be that humans got a more prosocial cognition and a retracted face relative to other extinct humans in the course of our evolution as a result of changes affecting neural crest cells?" asks Alejandro Andirk, PhD students at the Department of Catalan Philology and General Linguistics of the UB, who took part in the study.

To test this relationship, researchers focused on Williams Syndrome disorder, a specific human neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by both craniofacial and cognitive-behavioral traits relevant to domestication. The syndrome is a neurocristopathy: a deficit of a specific cell type during embryogenesis. In this case, neural crest cells.

In this study, researchers from the team led by Giuseppe Testa used in vitro models of Williams syndrome with stem cells derived from the skin. Results showed that the BAZ1B gene -which lies in the region of the genome causing Williams Syndrome- controls neural crest cell behavior: lower levels of BAZ1B resulted in reduced neural-crest migration, and higher levels produced greater neural-crest migration.

Comparing modern human and Neanderthal genomesResearchers examined this gene in archaic and modern human genomes. "We wanted to understand if neural crest cell genetic networks were affected in human evolution compared to the Neanderthal genomes", Cedric Boeckx said.

Results showed that that BAZ1B affects a significant number of genes accumulating mutations in high frequency in all living human populations that are not found in archaic genomes currently available. "We take this to mean that BAZ1B genetic network is an important reason our face is so different when compared with our extinct relatives, the Neanderthals," Boeckx said. "In the big picture, it provides for the first time experimental validation of the neural crest-based self-domestication hypothesis," continues.An empirical way to test evolutionary claims

These results open the road to studies tackling the role of neural crest cells in prosociality and other cognitive domains but is also one of the first examples of a potential subfield to test evolutionary claims. "This research constitutes one of the first studies that uses cutting-edge empirical technologies in a clinical setting to understand how humans have evolved since the split with Neanderthals, and establishes Williams Syndrome in particular as a unique atypical neurodevelopmental window onto the evolution of our species," Boeckx concludes.

Both Sony and Microsoft have been slowly trickling out official details about the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett, but there have also been several major leaks in recent weeks that have potentially spoiled some unannounced surprises. Kotakus news editor Jason Schreier contributed a leak of his own this Wednesday, citing sources who believe that a cheaper, disc-less Xbox will arrive in 2020 alongside Scarlett. Then, shortly after his story was published, he shared even more details hes heard about the next-gen consoles on Twitter.

According to Schreier, the PS5 and Xbox Scarlett will both be very powerful and will have similar specs. This lines up with several other rumors which have suggested the hardware itself will be virtually interchangeable when it comes to the new consoles. He also says that Sony has been more communicative with developers than Microsoft has, and revealed in his article that PS5 devkits have been much easier to come by (which might explain all of the leaks). He also says that this probably wont make any difference by the time the consoles are released:

He also says that Sonys strategy is for the PS5 to be as accessible as possible, citing the lack of load times as one of the pillars of this strategy. Its unclear if hes suggesting that Microsoft is less concerned with accessibility, or if this is simply another case of Microsoft having failed to communicate its goals.

These arent bombshells from Schreier, nor are they very specific, but the dots are slowly being connected ahead of the inevitable reveal events next year. Although he doesnt seem to think Microsofts lack of communication will be a problem in the long-term, its hard to ignore any red flags, even small ones, when the Xbox brand took such a huge step back for much of the last generation while PlayStation reigned supreme.

The Pillow Project in NOW:PLAYING. (Photo: Jonathan Aryeh Wayne)

By Steve SucatoPittsburgh Current Dance Writerinfo@pittsburghcurrent.com

The Pillow Projects name comes from the creative state found in dreams. The influential local dance troupe founded in 2004 by Pearlann Porter has since dreamed up a number of cutting edge experimental dance and music works incorporating technology, innovative lighting and Porters signature Postmodern-Jazz movement method. They include the critically-acclaimed Paper Memory, The Green Swan, Itch of the Key and Luminography. Building on the lighting innovations developed in those prior works comes Porters latest dance-theater experience, NOW: PLAYING, performed by the Pillow Project, December 7 & 8 at the Kelly-Strayhorn Theater.

The world premiere production features a unique approach to theatrical lighting not seen before utilizes video projected fields of moving light aimedacrossa darkened stage from the sides to illuminate the works performers who seemingly instantly appear from nowhere and likewise disappear back into darkness.

Says Porter, The dancers are only being lit by video from the projectors so the lighting can have motion to it, it can vibrate, scroll up from the floor, particle and disappear. This has opened up a completely new dimension of choreographing.

The effect Porter says is like watching a live-action music video unfold before you. With that however, Porter says the learning curve and the amount of time consumed in taking this new approach has been so intense that it may be the hardest thing she has undertaken as a dance-maker.

More than anything I wanted to make a piece that would be absolutely fun to watch and do, says Porter. I have never created a full-length work for a proscenium theater space and one that has storyline. It will be a one-of-a-kind experience.

Directed by Porter and John Lambert, the hour-long NOW: PLAYING is performed by 5-dancers (each in different footwear) to an original score by longtime company collaborator PJ Roduta.

It begins from nothing and ends from nothing and in the most postmodern way possible I deconstruct the theater and make it raw, says Porter. I want the audience not to be quite sure when the work starts or ends.

BACK TO THE FUTURE

Movement artist Ru Emmons and interdisciplinary artist, filmmaker and writer join forces for Street Light, an experience of queer time travel, where the two performers embody their past, present, and future selves says Emmons. The in-progress performance, part of KSTs Freshworks Residency program, will take place Friday, December 6 at KST Alloy Studios.

In the collaborative 30-minute work set to varied collection of songs, poems and text, the two artists incorporate movement, sound, and video to investigate the process of personal and collective transformation.

Conceived, written, directed and performed by the pair, with Street Light the pair want you to go home, look in the mirror, and talk nicer to yourself (all of your selves), says Emmons. At its core, both of our work centers on social commentary and healing which will always be relevant. Healing, in turn, always proves itself to be cyclical. In this current climate, there is this idea of separation, the other, the outcast, exclusion rather than inclusion. This work is meant to reclaim space, and empower us all to look inward.
