Great story in SF Chronicle on a Roof Deck


One August night, on a roof terrace in Rome, a young architect in a state of repose observes a speckled sky. It's the Night of San Lorenzo, the best night of the year to spot shooting stars.

"The air was cool, drifting from the sea, but the deck was still warm from the heat of the day," recalls architect Matthew Peek, who studied architecture in Italy on a Fulbright Fellowship in the late '90s. "I absorbed the warmth of the deck through my back, gazing up into the stars. It was kind of magical. I knew I had fallen in love with roofscapes in Italy."

Peek, now principal of San Francisco's Studio Peek Ancona, summons more memories of life above the fray in Italy: the "sea of domes" as seen from his Roman rooftop, and, from a modest terrace in Florence, adorned with lemon and olive trees, a postcard view of the famous Duomo. More than a decade later, Peek's enchantment with rooftops has long surpassed its statute of limitations as mere nostalgia for a hopeful and adventurous time in his life - the impact of these Italian terraces lingers, imbuing his architectural career.

Fwd: What Problems Does Your Association Face From Hidden Damage?


If you experience problems with this email newsletter, read it online.

What Problems Does Your Association Face From Hidden Damage?
by Tyler P. Berding, Esq. and Steven S. Weil, Esq.
Every community association will face a major reconstruction project several times in the life of the development. This may occur because of anticipated problems, such as re-roofing or re-painting, but it can also occur because of completely unanticipated,and unreservedfor, problems, such as dry rot, soil subsidence, or leaks in windows and siding.
There are two different outcomes to any attempt to repair hidden damage. The first is a predictable project that succeeds in repairing the damage within the association's financial means. The second part is so unexpected and expensive to repair that it overwhelms the association's resources.
Next to damage from a natural disaster, a big, unexpected construction project is probably one of the most disruptive events in an association's life. Some associations never recover.
So what are your association's options?
Learn what your association can do when facing hidden damage in the booklet, The Perils of Hidden Damage.
