Visiting Designer Days at the Hester Street Collaborative
March 18, 2011
Recently Tracy had the opportunity to get involved with the Hester Street Collaborative, a non-profit organization in NYC that focuses on design-build projects in under-served neighborhoods. HSC works with residents and young students in an effort to expose them to the design community and create environments that will serve the area. Tracy led a group of about twenty 5th graders from the HSC’s after-school Garden Collaboration group. The Garden Collaboration Group is working on rebuilding a community garden in the area. They are assigned the roles of architects, designers and gardeners and see the project through conception to completion. Working with donations of pencils, fabric samples and brochures from the Loro Piana Showroom in NYC, the students discussed aloud their … [Read more...]
Happy Holidays from Urban Dwellings!
December 17, 2010
As our world and communities have faced many changes and challenges over the last few years, we at Urban Dwellings are no exception. World and economic circumstance have given us pause to rethink our mission and our business practices. With that said, Urban Dwellings is sending you this Holiday Greeting electronically in lieu of the traditional paper card, opting to donate the monies that we would have spent on our Holiday mailing to the nonprofit organization, Safe Passage. Safe Passage was established by Maine native Hanley Denning in 1999. A graduate of Bowdoin College, Hanley set out to improve the lives of the children and families living near and working in the Guatemala City dump. Her mission: to combat poverty through education. Currently Safe Passage serves nearly 600 … [Read more...]
Tracy Davis featured in Maine magazine Trek Across ME article
June 11, 2010
The trekkers wake up early, slip on their shorts, and leave Sunday River, as early as 6:30 a.m., descending a foggy, cool stretch of two-lane roads. They ride along the Androscoggin River, over skid marks and frost heaves, past logging camps, through Rumford, Weld, and Wilton. Rain or shine. The rollers between Weld and Wilton are pretty tough, especially that five-mile stretch outside of Weld, where teams sing songs to will themselves and their Treks and Cannondales up the largest hill of the ride - I think I can, I think I can - when their legs are stiff and tired and about to give out and they wish they had trained more - and the black flies! - and Oh, I think I can. By nightfall, the clumps of neon riders trickle into the University of Maine at Farmington and set up … [Read more...]
