If the original design of a large hotel includes a pool and/or workout area, there's usually an intentional effort to design it so that guests can access these areas without parading through the main...

Considering much of the vicinity surrounding Eastland is endless acres of vacant "urban prairie", HW would be wise to jump on just about any offer to invest in the area. Tolerably attractive...

You're kidding, right?

Out of deeply ingrained homophobia, men are the ones who voluntarily restrict themselves within a tiny conformist spectrum of color/fashion/style. Anything too colorful or...

It's because we are in the midst of a global pandemic. One would have to go back over 100 years in order to find anything to "compare" this election cycle to. By nature, campaigning has been all...

In the same vein, in cities like Portland, purchasing a home is an appreciating investment. If I bought that same house worth $467k for $265k seven years ago, I'd be mighty pleased with the ROI.
