As I wrote in an earlier post, architect | journalism, a lot of work in public design doesn’t fit within the mold of how architects typically spend their time. Today is no exception, and today, progress is advertising.

In September of 2011, twenty-six Katrina Cottages arrived at the Greenwood-Leflore Airport. They are still sitting near the tarmac today (pictured below), but thanks to many dedicated individuals this project is one big step closer to becoming a reality. Shovels, hammers, and concrete are still a little ways off, but advertising has begun for these new homes. Thank you to Bruce Tolar for his expert advice. We hope someday our neighborhood will be similar to your Cottage Square!
