9 Hours in Tijuana

A group of us spent an amazing Friday in Tijuana (TJ) visiting sites of architecture and cultural interest. My last visit was 2 years ago and for some of the others, it was much longer. Based on our visit, I foresee more frequent visits in the future! If you haven't been to TJ in awhile, consider a day trip across the border.

DTLA Art and Architecture Adventure (part 1)

I am only now getting back to last week's 7 hours in downtown LA (DTLA) having taken a trip to Philadelphia right after (see previous post). You could say it's been busy, but in a good way!

Louis Kahn Power of Architecture Journey Continues in Philly

Do you feel like your life is made up of serendipitous events? It often feels that way to me. A month ago while fact checking a reference for my Louis Kahn Pilgrimage blog post, Google brought up The Fabric Workshop Museum (FWM) website. On it, a special event associated with the Louis Kahn Power of Architecture exhibit, was listed. William Whitaker, the archivist at the University of Pennsylvania would be leading a tour of 2 Kahn residences - the Fisher House in Hatsboro and the Esherick House in Chestnut Hill.
