Beltline mastermind Ryan Gravel joins Perkins+Will
March 18, 2008 at 11:43 am by Thomas Wheatley in News
Perhaps realizing that working in the world of urban design is much sexier than dealing with talk of deficits and Supreme Court rulings, Ryan Gravel, the visionary behind the Beltline, has accepted a position with Perkins+Will, a commercial architect design firm whose work includes the Centennial YMCA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 106 Building. Gravel had previously been consulting and teaching design studios at Georgia Tech.
Let it be known that I’m jealous of Gravel. Not just because he’s an architect, but also because he works for a firm that has a “+” in its name.

Creative + Loafing doesn’t work?

It just doesn’t feel as cool as having two last names connected with a “+”. Perhaps if CL’s founders were named “Larry Creative” and “Thigpen Loafing” it’d be a different story.
