Database of Stalled Projects May Get Things Going PDF Print E-mail
The Ives Architecture Studio
Written by AIA   
Friday, 18 November 2011 17:39

The American Institute of Architects has recently instituted an amazing national database of projects "that make economic sense" but, have been held up due to a lack of funding. The AIA is attempting to link architects, developers and lenders. It's kind of like a "match.com" for launching stalled projects.  

 

I believe this concept might "take off" and expand to thousands of opportunities across the country.  It appears that if you get you name on the list during the early stages of the database, your firm will get a great deal of exposure and possibly make some "deals."

 

This is an exciting concept in our sluggish economy.   Let me know if I can be of any help.  I would be interested if anyone needs an architect.

There was an ad a few years ago with a voiceover that asked, “Hey, where did everybody go?” That is the question I had in Borders recently. It was less than three weeks until “holiday” and there were no lines. Even last year, they had the rope line up to handle the crowd. Across the street at the Bridgewater Mall, even on pre-Christmas weekends it was still possible to find a parking space without too much trouble. As lackluster as that may sound, the Census Bureau indicates that retail sales jumped at an annualized 14% in the 4th quarter of 2010, which would seem to be good news since 70% of our economy is driven by consumer purchases.

In December, Congress enacted new legislation that substantially enhances incentives available for business investment in capital and equipment.  The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-312) creates some interesting opportunities in the commercial real estate marketplace.  Among the incentives is a temporary extension of bonus depreciation, a bonus depreciation allowance of 100 percent of the cost of qualified property placed in service after September 8, 2010 and before January 1, 2012, and temporary increases in the deductible amount and investment limitation under Code Sec. 179 for tax years beginning in 2010.
