Gingerbread House Analysis On December 11th 2017, the critical thinking class started making gingerbread house. Grace’s class decided to make these fun gingerbread houses to bring holiday cheer and celebrate the holidays. This project was a one day project and was very enjoyable. It was very easy and related to the E in STEM. The E stands for Engineering and there was a lot of that. This project only took one class period, which is surprising because the quality of some of them are astonishing…

Nearly two-thirds of the American population own their home. With homeownership comes a lot of responsibility, including the decision to get home insurance. Home insurance is financial protection provided by an insurance company of the homeowner’s choosing. After paying their premiums, homeowners can request financial assistance if they experience a loss, such as a fire, water damage or sometimes mold. However, it’s important to understand when your home is covered and when it is not. The…

According to data from the American FactFinder, the total number of housing units in New York City is estimated to be close to 3.5 million and 42%, almost half of these residential units, are located in buildings that were built in 1939 or earlier. Furthermore, more than half of the pre-1940 historic buildings are one or two family type houses.

“Well, that’s a first. Most harts let me inside them because I have an accent.” As I start to reply with a diss, Noah talks over me with, “You’ll discover real soon that Lotty isn’t like most girls. She’s…” He trails off, eyes on me. My ears perk up and my heart pauses its job, waiting for the complete sentence. I’m what? I’m what? Say it, goddammit! But he doesn’t, flicking his eyes from me. Qwesie has…

The issue I would like to address is the need for additional funding for federal housing programs and projects. Affordable housing continues to be a major barrier for low-income individuals. The availability of affordable continues to decrease, as does funds dedicated to affordable housing programs such as public housing and housing choice vouchers (HCV). It is dire that more funding be allocated to updating and increasing affordable housing programs, so that our most vulnerable populations…

My wife and I just bought our first home, a small goat farm with a residence located just outside of a college in North Central Florida. For my MCDM assignment, I am going construct a MCDM model drawing from the pros and cons list my wife and I compiled while trying to decide which home to buy. We had narrowed down our search to three homes and then wrote out a list of criteria that was important to us to make the best decision possible.

Watching a neighbor’s house being burned down in the middle of the night is something you never forget. Then to soon realize the man burning the house down was your neighbor, the owner of the house. Burning Montag’s house because he broke the law is unacceptable and completely immoral. It was terrible seeing a new friend of mine’s house burn to the ground because of something he was curious about. No one can ever think or be curious about anything anymore without suffering dire consequences. I…

For my walking survey, I decided to use my grandmother’s neighborhood. She resides in a home built in 1953 and has lived there for over 30 years. I am familiar with this neighborhood and I felt very comfortable with the area. The neighborhood has a strong community feel, most of the residents have lived there for as long as I can remember. The neighborhood does not have any new houses or buildings. The houses have remained the same. The only one abandoned house in the neighborhood and this due…
