Discord: New Message Infodump

Yes this is not getting put in the widofjord tag because I don’t like filling up others’ searches with something that is not “directly” linked. *jazz hands* anxiety. BUT here is all I could think of and a sprinkling of things I have seen asked about or mentioned in the comments! May this and the last chapter hold you over <3

Q: Why a text fic?

A: Honestly? I have only ever seen one from VM (there may be others, but I don’t read many fics out of my niche sections?) that was between Grog/Vax (I don’t ship it but when it’s a bar shift #3 in a row that’s 14 hours long, you need entertainment). I had read also Call Me, Beep Me from the VLD fandom as well as Misuse of Stark Technology and thought that it was a strong platform for conversation and storytelling that shows multiple perspectives at once without the constant POV whiplash that can happen otherwise. And with the strong and chaotic personalities of TM9 and the diverse ways the NPCs interacted fit in, I hoped it wouldn’t be that hard to pull off.

I’ll be honest, I was not sure if it would work out or catch on as it is not the most popular form of storytelling. As many people said in the comments of chapters 1-5, people generally don’t enjoy texting fics and skip past them. I am glad I took the risk and that everyone has with me.

Q: Is it true you have not watched past Ep. 40?

A: Yes. Campaign 2 came out just before I started school, and I decided school deserved my full attention. I was also not as attached at large with the cast as an ensemble as I was with VM. This combined with having anxiety and needing something to be finished before I can enjoy made it difficult to get back into C2. I was lucky that I started Campaign 1 a few weeks before that ended. I will probably watch it when everything is over, but I mostly follow through spoilers and Arsequeef’s gifs.

Q: What are some of your influences for this?

A: I have seen a lot of people loving the realism of the conversations. I don’t watch TV or movies, but I watch streamers mostly, especially group streamers. Because of this, I tend to hear nothing but natural conversations. I also have been in group chats since the old AIM days and was a bartender for 6 years, so I have pulled from interactions that I have experienced around me. Often when something perfect happens in a chat with my friends I screen shot it for use later (the look spam and how do you uwu are both examples).

Q: Why that area?

A: I like to use locations I know well if there is a lot of real-world interactions. I am from Massachusetts and I had used Savannah, Ga., for Here’s To Us, where I lived for 4 years.

Q: Will the chat be renamed to The Mighty Nein or something similar?

A: No. The chat existed before Caleb as that and was set up originally by Fjord and Beau with Molly, Bryce, Darrow, and Yasha. It’s been the Game Hoes for too long in their life to change. There will be some side chats that appear and disappear.

Q: Didn’t Veth work with Caleb?

A: Originally that was the plan, but halfway through the first chapter, I decided to space everyone out better and missed her name in one paragraph at the beginning of the chapter. I wanted them to know each other but avoid the trope of “direct connection” with strangers to lovers and text fics.

Q: How tall is Fjord (and the rest of them by proxy)

A: I changed the heights because Caleb is canon “Average height” which in DnD is different than the US. So, he was given a few extra inches to put him at 5’10”. Fjord was scaled up because we love height differences to 6’3” because of that. By order of height:

Veth- 4’11, Kiri- 5’, Keg and Yeza- 5’3, Jester and Rissa- 5’4, Astrid- 5’5, Bryce, Beau, and Wulf- 5’9, Beau, Caleb, Molly, and Ava- 5’10, Yasha- 5’11, Darrow and Essek- 6’, Fjord and Gunther- 6’3, Cad and Enzo- 6’5.

I’m probably forgetting some people.

Q: Why did Enzo’s arc allegedly end that way?

A: I’m not sure I’m done with him just yet, but the reason it had to be let go like that is simple: legality. Real world consequences to acts would have kind of thrown a wrench in how this all unfolds. And Molly was the character who I felt could bounce back the best from getting a solid ass kicking.

Q: Why was Astrid faster at accepting than Wulf, and why is he so possessive?

A: Wulf was Caleb’s first real friend and that meant he was the redhead’s world. Astrid came second and she realized how quickly jealousy can sour something. Wulf’s jealousy fed into the break-up. So, despite the awkwardness, she wanted to show Caleb that she meant it when she said they could still be friends.

Wulf was Caleb’s first friend, and he has that sense of seniority in his mind and has a hard time accepting he is not being replaced when new people come around. And as a more dominant person, it was hard for him to have the normally docile friend speak out against him. He is still immature and needed to grow, but has a hard time seeing that is okay right now.

Q: Where does everyone attend?

A: Amherst College- Astrid, Caleb, Essek, Wulf. Boston College- Cad. Emerson- Beau, Gunther, Enzo, Fjord, Keg, Molly, Rissa, and Yasha. Princeton- Bryce. Hofstra- Jester and Kiri. UConn- Yeza (Graduated). UMass/Boston University/Tufts- NPCs not brought in yet.

**Caleb has stated Jester lives in the City early on because Jester has all her locations on social set to NYC

Q: Any reason why you picked those schools?

A: I’m a BC fan (and Providence College), my childhood friend went to Emerson, and I was accepted to Hoftstra before I joined the military instead. Amherst was a perfect “nearby” city that was another college town/I am maybe looking at Amherst for a PhD. Program.

Q: Where is Darrow stationed when not crashing Bryce’s life or deployed? What does he do?

A: Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. He was attached to the 26th MEU (Marine Expeditionary Unit) that goes through the Mediterranean. He currently is on hospital duty as a temporary “relaxation period” for people who are deployed often. As he is a paladin, I thought it’d be a nice touch to have him as an FMF Corpsman.

Q: Where is everyone from? The holidays showed people all over and it’s mentioned some people were not born in the US or where they were located.

A: This is where that spreadsheet I made comes in handy. Most of the people either grew up in or intend to stay in Massachusetts for a long while. As there are some of the major schools in that area, obviously people would be out of state.

Boston TM9 Party

The Clay Family is in Jamaica Plains, which is just outside of Boston proper. They are from there, minus Toya who is adopted as well and from Maine.

Molly was the godson of Cad’s mother, who is from England and his father had been stationed in England for some time, so when he was essentially orphaned and given up by the indirect family, she put through the paperwork to take him in. Fjord and Yasha stayed with them.

Fjord is originally from Texas, outside of El Paso. After he joined the Navy, he never intended to move home as he hated it there. He fell in love with New England when he was sent TAD (Temporary Assignment of Duty) to the naval base in Newport. He stayed and continued his education at Emerson.

Yasha is from Jamaica Plains as well and went to school with Molly and Ornna, who is the same age as them. Her dad is from South Carolina and her mother is from Okinawa. They moved up north for her dad’s work.

Beau is from Kentucky and her family is unreasonably wealthy. She decided to go to school someplace as un-Kentucky as she could fathom and was stuck between Berkley and Emerson but chose the former because the weather meant her mother would never visit.

The Amherst Crew (Astrid and Wulf) are all from the area except for:

Caleb, was born in Poland to a Polish/German family. They moved and when his family died in a fire (he was at a sleepover at the time) his grandparents took him in. Wulf was still there with his large family and

Essek had returned home to California for the break.

Astrid and her family spent 10 days in Key West for the holidays, which is why she missed the New York trip. Wulf stayed locally for winter break.

The Conn/NY/NJ Groups are pretty straightforward.

The Brenattos stayed in New Haven, where they moved when Luc was born from Amherst. They had moved so Veth could start fresh.

Jester was surprised by a visit from her mother on Christmas Day and spent it with her. It was the first time her mom came from the Ukraine, as Jester’s dad is the one who she moved with. She lives on Long Island not far from her school.

Kiri is from upstate New York and was home for the Holidays.

Bryce drove down to Louisiana. They and Darrow are from Marietta, but they were at their grandmother’s place in Lafourche Parish. Darrow returned to Jacksonville NC.

Others Keg and Gunther were in Rhode Island but separately, where they are both from, Rissa is from Maine and went home, and Enzo was in jail (he is from Lynn, Ma).

Q: How old is everyone?

A: 5- Luc. 19- Kiri, 20- Jester, Rissa, Keg, and Enzo, 21- Beau, Molly, Yasha, Essek, and Astrid, 22- Caleb, Cali, Reani, and Wulf. 24- Cad, 25- Fjord and Bryce. 27- Veth and Darrow. 28- Yeza.

Q: If Fjord has the GI Bill why does he live on campus or have a job?

A: For those who don’t know how the GI Bill works, the government pays for education and sends some money based on housing in the zip code of the school. Boston is insanely expensive and student living is easier. Essentially, he wanted the “college experience” and it was cheaper. He needs the job more because he knows better than to let himself get idle. If he does, he won’t focus on school. Like Travis, my Fjord has ADHD.

Q: How did Veth and Caleb meet?

A: In a Juvenile’s in-patient program for at-risk teenagers and those suffering from mental health issues. Caleb’s depression and anxiety following the death of his parents and the constant bullying for numerous things and previous attempts or ideations had him labeled “at risk” for self-harm. He was in for 3 weeks. Veth was in for her kleptomania and possible signs of disruptive BPD or other developing personality disorders but aged out of the youth section when she turned 18. As most diagnoses cannot be done for those until adulthood, she was being watched for early onset signs.

Q: How did Jester/Veth get into the group?

A: Jester met Beau, Yasha and Molly at NYCC two years’ prior in line for a panel. They met again at Anime Boston after exchanging Twitter handles a few months later. Jester had worked NYCC a year ago and helped Veth to a quiet room for Luc, who was fussing, then stayed with her as she was on break soon. She invited Veth to play a few games of Don’t Starve Together with her and Yasha before she was brought into the main group.

Q: This is a really diverse cast. What is everyone and why?

A: Some were obvious choices such as Caleb being from Germany, Jester being from Eastern Europe (Ukrainian), and Molly as Irish (and English).

Others I did to flush out to make a group in a major city make more sense. Wulf and Astrid both have French/ Germanic backgrounds because in canon, they were raised in a similar way. Astrid is Jewish along with Caleb to hint at why it may have been easier for them to date if her family was stricter than his.

Fjord and Yasha faced some racial issues early on in the show (Yasha from where she was from and Fjord for being a half orc), so I wanted them to be people of color. Yasha is half Japanese because of her name and because US troops often marry someone from Japan when they are single and stationed there. Her father is Jamaican in decent. Fjord’s dad he figures is Black but they’ve never met, as his mother’s side are Mexican. I chose that because I wanted to keep the Texan because a lot of people in the service are from Texas. Also, as previously stated, I had too many naturalized or foreign students already and needed to not stress over how they would be around for the breaks.

Cad is English, Norwegian, and Swedish because Cad is a god, who why not make him a Norse god? Veth is half Cambodian partially because there is a decent population size in Massachusetts. Beau is the not white-passing cousin of her family which will come in later because rich families have secrets, yo. Her family has some Cajun/Creole in her like Darrow but it shouldn’t be there according to her family lineage.

Essek is Persian, Rissa is Puerto Rican, Bryce and Keg are “Confused American Mixes” of everything. Cali I have not decided yet, but will probably have some English in her, Reani I have decided on Moroccan. Kiri is Korean.

Enzo is an asshole (he’s also mix of random European heritage.) I feel like I missed someone.

Q: Is Widofjord the only pairing we will see?

A: There are some others forming, including BeauYasha, which was one of the possibilities when I started. Molly/Essek/Astrid were a shock and some others I won’t spoil just yet are starting to bud as hopefuls.

Q: Do you have an end game in sight?

A: Honestly, as this whole fic has taken on a life of its own, not entirely. It was originally mapped out to be 12 chapters long and have much of this condensed down with all the side characters removed, no Enzo or hockey games, and the extra fluff cut out. As I wrote it, I found I enjoyed that almost more than the Widofjord specifics. So, this has really evolved away from a Widofjord ONLY fic, I am aware. Endgame wise, when I feel the story is told, I will wind it down, but there are more elements evolving with every chapter and I want these characters to get the moments they’re aiming toward. I also don’t want it to drag on too long, so I know that this will eventually come to an end.

Q: Did anything change relationship wise while writing?

A: 100%. Beau and Jester were originally who I expected to pan out, but my Jes couldn’t seem to devote to that because she had developed more attraction to Molly and Fjord than I expected. Beau and Yasha just clicked better. Molly was the next option for Jester, but then I decided to make Essek and Astrid actual friends with the TM9 and we see how that went.

Q: Is Jester going to find something happier? It kind of sucked seeing her so down and withdrawn these last few chapters. And where is Nott’s role now?

A: I am trying with Jessy. I am. Here’s to hoping she behaves? As for Nott, she is shining as the mom friend, but her coming into the fray more means bad things are happening. And yes, that is on the way.

Q: You keep hinting at something in both Caleb and Fjord’s pasts. Are we ever going to see that?

A: Yes. I am trying to space out the angst as much as possible. This was never meant to be a hurt/comfort type story, but people have mental health issues and those because pivotal to the story more than I intended. Maybe the curse of having complete access to everyone’s conversations? But they will be coming out.

Some carers could also be medically trained - these are often healthcare assistants or nurses. 8. How do I do know if home care suppliers are respected? The best way to ensure that the care businesses you might be contemplating are reputable is to examine on-line for reviews, or ask around to see if anybody you know has had an expertise with them previously (good or dangerous). Word of mouth testimonials are the only positive technique to know that the service you’ll get shall be pretty much as good as you expect will probably be. You can even test the official stories made by the CQC (Care Quality Commission), and ask if the care agencies you’re contemplating are members of the UKHCA (UK Home Care Association). There’s extra on this below. 9. Are non-public homecare agencies regulated by any central body? Yes. a home care supplier is subject to checks in the same means as residential care properties are. Consider Getting In-Home Care In keeping with the AARP, an estimated 87% of senior Americans prefer to stay in their own homes for the remainder of their aging years. So if you want to stay at dwelling in your retirement years, consider yourself in good company. For this, be aware of your care options to make your in-residence activities extra manageable and of high quality. Getting assistance for both your medical or non-medical wants could make your day by day activities more handy. Learn to make use of Technology In the current, there are already lots of innovations that may also help a senior particular person reside longer. On account of many treatments and interventions, there’s the next likelihood that you can also make it by way of many more years in the aging season.

If you’re fascinated to know other matters about our companies, name us. Many might be disoriented. They have a look at their living area and suppose something is off. In my mom’s case, certainly one of the primary warning indicators that issues have been changing was her repeated concern that someone had moved all of her belongings into a “new” room at her assisted-living facility. The room, she marveled, regarded exactly like her previous room. That it was her outdated room didn’t occur to her. For caregivers, figuring out patients’ anxiety triggers will be helpful. Even healthy “worriers,” which my mom once was, tend toward “catastrophic ideas,” Drew said. These are people who concern, as an illustration, that the son or daughter who hasn’t called is hurt or that their headache is a brain tumor. They shake it off when their brains nonetheless work properly, however add dementia, they usually “can’t turn that off,” Drew stated. Old coping mechanisms now not work. In hindsight, I notice that my mother’s Baltimore police panic hit as I was about to go out of city. The next time I travel, I’ve decided not to tell my mom. Many individuals are aware that the home care industry is booming. But one space to look that helps to support this notion is the number of jobs that are being created within the home care area. While you look on the variety of jobs that exist today, and how many are anticipated to be created, it is obvious that there is a number of progress taking place within the business. Increase in need. Millions of persons are reaching an age where they'll want some form of homecare, growing the expanse of the trade. With so many individuals in need, the trade will respond by rising to accommodate the demand. Affordability. Many people are realizing that home care is a much more affordable route to offering individuals with the assistance they need. This is especially true when compared with such things as assisted dwelling facilities and nursing houses. Aging in place. Individuals are beginning to understand the significance of serving to the elderly be capable of age in place, or stay in their own home. This helps them maintain some independence, be happier, and be in a position to stay in their acquainted surroundings. Ms Cameron stated her husband ended up so closely sedated in the mental well being facility he was "knocked out" while another day she found him bruised and face down on the ground after he fell off a chair. Ms Cameron stated she spent about three years below threat of attack and injury as a consequence of her husband's fixed state of worry and confusion, as the paranoia, hallucinations and aggression signs of the disease set in. Mr Cameron went into full-time care in a specialist nursing residence for mental well being patients in 2016, after nearly eleven months in a hospital. The couple had been inseparable since they were teenagers. Ms Cameron thought she would be capable to look after the man she liked, the man who had been full of life and enjoyable. While Ms Cameron's story was described as extremely distressing, different carers of elderly members of the family also detailed the difficulties in accessing support and respite providers as a 3-day listening to started in Mildura in regional Victoria. Senior counsel assisting the commission Peter Gray QC said there have been knowledgeable and anecdotal indications residential aged care respite was too usually perceived as a adverse and even a dangerous experience.

Frank LaCavera and his hour glass collections

Frank LaCavera and his hour glass collections By PEOPLE STAFF June 05, 1989 12:00 PM Like the sands through the hourglass, so are the days of Frank J. LaCavera’s life. LaCavera, a 70ish retired electrical engineer, lives in Cleveland in a house that is filled with reminders of the temporal — more than 300 one-of-a-kind hourglasses that he has designed and made in the last 32 years. Each is set on a marble base with the hourglass in a wooden frame, and the whole is adorned with whimsical decoration. “I only do this stuff when inspired,” says LaCavera. “It’s like magic.”

Frank LaCavera hourglass Among the inspirations that became hourglasses are: Castle and Dragon, which includes a tiny steel dragon next to a tiny castle, set on a piece of amethyst, all inside a crystal ball; Pluto, with the hourglass perched atop a spaceship; and Ribs, which includes a plastic pig under glass, reclining in a centerfold pose. LaCavera took up his hobby when he was looking for an hourglass to decorate his study and found out that the closest thing he could buy in Cleveland was an egg timer, so he went into business for himself. He had to invent the machinery and instruments, including one to remove static electricity from inside the glass and another to determine the proper size of the hole between the two halves of the hourglass. (His hourglasses are accurate to 14 seconds an hour.) LaCavera has sold only a few hourglasses over the years (they run from $89 to $1,500), but he prefers to hang on to his work, which now fills the modest three-bedroom frame house he shares with wife Phyllis on the city’s west side. Phyllis thinks the world should see more of her husband’s hourglasses. “Work this beautiful,” she says, “should be out there where people can enjoy it.” Hourglass maker Frank LaCavera filling 12 of his hourglass bulbs w. sand as he prepares to time test each piece that he will use in his ornate hourglass creations at his workshop in home.

Frank LaCavera hourglass collections Frank LaCavera and his hour glass collections Lima News, The (Newspaper) - August 12, 1976, Lima, Ohio I lie jLiiua CLEVELAND (AP) Frank LaCavera is an hourglass master, one of the few in the world still making two-and three-foot hourglasses that can run from one to nine hours. His basement in his Cleveland home has become a collection of tubes, bottles, glass beads and other paraphernalia. He even has a small museum with a revolving stage and a curtain behind which is his handiwork. LaCavera said he became interested in mak- ing hourglasses, an instru- ment for measuring time Liquor to flow on Election Day Modern-day hourglass maker works for sentiment not money v" J mt Frank LaCavera considered expert in his hobby usually by the trickling of sand through a small open- ing, after he tried to buy one and discovered that stores only sold small ones used by housewives to make three-minute eggs., "When I saw how scarce they were, I thought I'd make them as a chal- he said Dr Warner Bundens Jr. president of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors Inc., said that "nobody else in the world is making modern hourglasses. I have one of LaCavera's originals at home. It's a 60-minute COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Starting with the November election, Ohio no longer will be a state where you can't buy a drink or a bottle of liquor on election day. A new law which takes effect Friday repeals the antiquated statute which shut down taverns, bars, and other liquor along with the state's monopoly retail voting hours. All will be open Nov. 2, including the state which in the past have given their employes the entire day off although bars and restaurants usually let the booze flow again an hour after polls closed, as the old law per- mitted. Rep John A Galbraith, R-69 Moumce, sponsored Ihe new law, calling the old one "archaic He said the days are gone when people "voted publicly and sat under the trees passing the jug around. No one tries to buy votes with whisky anymore." Galbraith got little help from his Republican colleagues as his bill squeaked through the Democratic House 55-39 and Senate 17-15 Restaurant and bar owners who claimed the law unfairly penalized their businesses lobbied for him, and may have helped convince Gov. James A. Rhodes who signed the repealer without comment. The 52-year-old Galbraith said despite the lobbying, the bill represented his "personal conviction that the old law was out of date Ohio was the only one of the 10 largest states which continued to have such a prohibition." Rep Alan E Norris, R-27 Westerville, whose hometown claims to be the "birthplace of prohibition" and remains dry. carried the House opposition.

Mrs Robert Farwell was reminisc- ing about Jimmy Carter. She remembered him as the evangelist who eight years ago trumpeted Christianity in this central Penn- sylvania town. It was in 1968 that Carter visited the Lock Haven area as a member of a six-man team of Southern Baptist laymen attempting to start a second Baptist church. "He was the most humble and com- passionate man my husband and I ever met." Mrs Farwell, a widow of six months, said recently in a tele- phone interview. "He was a man who really loved the Lord Jesus Christ You could feel it every minute you were around him." The Baptist laymen remained two weeks, working in pairs and visiting 10 to 15 homes a day.

It had a speed of only 12 miles an hour, but that was enough to mark the beginning of the end for the flatboat and barge lines which had en- joyed all the trade until that time. The steamboats made travel safer and cheaper as well as faster, thus adding much to Ohio's growth and prosperity. Carolina dams lose to scenery WASHINGTON (AP) After a four-year legislative fight, a bill to save a scenic stretch of the New River in North Carolina from being inundated by power- generating dams is likely to win congressional approval this year. The House passed the bill Tuesday by a 311-73 vote and sent it to the Senate, which approved similar legislation jn the last Congress. President Ford has announced he would sign the bill. Every major environmental group in the country has backed the measure to save the 26.5-mile stretch "It looks like we will finally get it through this said Rep Ken Hechler.

"If any of you have a chance to take that trip, then I don't think you'll ever vote against this he told his colleagues. "God took 100 million years to create this river.

Benefits of Professional Wound Care in Marietta, GA and Altamonte Springs, FL

Slip and fall is a common complaint among Americans regardless of age. While children tend to fall when playing, seniors with restricted mobility are at an increased risk of being injured, too. Moreover, a few health conditions result in broken skin and discharge of blood and pus. Whatever may be the reason for wound formation, closing it perfectly and eliminating the risk of infection becomes necessary. Sure, a majority of wounds heal naturally and need no special care, but people with severe health conditions and extensive wounds may require proper wound care in Marietta, GA, and Altamonte Springs, FL.

Some of the reasons to hire a professional to take care of the existing wound(s) are:-

· Old Wound- Having an old wound lingers for more than six months can be dangerous. It indicates serious issues and has to start healing at the earliest. The best way to ensure this is to have a professional provide the necessary care to facilitate healing. The services of a skilled doctor may be required at the same time

· Underlying Factors- Wound healing involves three distinct phases. Several underlying health issues may prolong the process and hinder it. It is essential to treat the existing condition while facilitating the healing process. Only a skilled medical professional or an expert caregiver with adequate knowledge about the risk factors can ensure quick healing and closure of a gaping wound

· Smoking- Patients who smoke regularly or consume too much alcohol may be at an increased risk of living with the wound. Too often, the wound may be infected and fester long before progressing to a more severe complaint. Nicotine in the blood decreases oxygen flow to the wound, thus making healing difficult.

· Failure of Old Cure Procedures- Visiting a reputed physician and consuming medicines as prescribed by the doctor can result in quick healing. Sadly, many patients do not experience the same results. Complications may set in when the wound fails to recover in time. Hiring a professional for wound care can enable quick healing and well-being.

Complications

An old wound is likely to stop healing as expected when the concerned patient is already battling any of the following:-

· Pressure Ulcers

· Diabetic Wounds

· Arterial Ulcers

· Vasculitic Ulcers

· Venous Stasis Ulcers

· Complicated Surgical Wounds

· Soft Tissue Wounds That Do Not Heal

· Traumatic Wounds

· Infected Wounds

However, hiring a wound care provider based on self-promotion is a strict no-no. Instead, one must inquire about the credentials and experience of the well-equipped professional to do the following:-

· Assessment

· Prevention of Infection

· Advanced Wound Care

· Perfect Wound Closure

· Wound Management

Sure, the doctor or surgeon will treat the patient as required. Recuperating can also be a lengthy process that requires management by trained professionals adept at home nursing in Atlanta, GA, and Altamonte Springs, FL. This relieves the family members who are not equipped to care for the patients.

Own an Iconic Piece of Americana Architecture

Check out the latest post https://thenewsrabbit.com/own-an-iconic-piece-of-americana-architecture/

COLUMBUS, Ohio–(BUSINESS WIRE)–NAI Ohio River Corridor’s Laurie Stanbro has the opportunity to market what is known as one of the world’s most “unusual”, “bizarre” or “coolest” buildings in the United States, depending upon your perspective. Built in 1997 as the headquarters of the Longaberger Company, this iconic building is listed in the Lonely Planets book “Amazing Architecture: A Spotter’s Guide” as one of the 120 world’s greatest human constructions. The architecture of the building shaped as the company’s biggest seller, “Medium Market Basket” distinguishes itself from all the other bricks and glass structures that lack architecture originality.

Located in Newark, Ohio, visible from SR16, the seven-story, 180,000 sqft basket stands proudly on 21.5 acres. Built at a cost of $32 million ($177.77/SF) this building has everything including impressive C-suite offices, conference rooms, cafe, theatre and fitness center. Natural sunlight floods the 30,000 SF atrium from the massive skylight seven stories high.

Stanbro is marketing the building throughout the Midwest region. Utilizing the NAI Global, SIOR and CCIM network of offices and agents as well as regional and state economic development agencies, the building is getting exposure domestically and internationally. Organizations searching for headquarters, additional office space or investors looking for an opportunity to acquire one of the most unique and iconic buildings recognized worldwide have expressed interest in this facility.

Stanbro states, “This building has had tremendous exposure worldwide due to its unique architecture and would make a perfect home for a tech company, professional services group, even a petrochemical or plastic company capitalizing on the natural gas and NGL’s found in the Shale Crescent area of Ohio. This building is the perfect way to differentiate your business.” According to Stanbro, “How could anyone miss a seven-story basket less than 30 minutes from Columbus, Ohio?”

The building also offers a great opportunity to repurpose as a hotel, senior living or shared office concept. The uniqueness and the amenities of this building would appeal to start-up or existing businesses. The building has classic offices and open work environments that millennial and seasoned employees appreciate.

The sale price of the building is currently undisclosed. Replacement value of an office building built to the high standards of this Class A interior finish would cost over $200/SF. Sales of existing buildings throughout the region are in the $100 plus/SF price range. The current owners are open to any serious offers either to purchase or lease the property.

NAI Ohio River Corridor (NAIORC), a full-service commercial real estate firm, affiliate of NAI Global, consists of Stanbro, Leon McCombs and Bryce Custer, SIOR, CCIM and focuses on commercial real estate in eastern and southeastern Ohio. NAIORC works with buyers and sellers of industrial, office, and retail properties, and has been working with owners and buyers in the Shale Crescent, Point Pleasant, Utica and Marcellus Shale regions of the Tri-State area. NAIORC has offices in Bolivar and Marietta, Ohio and Weirton, WV.

Caddis first Heartis senior living community in Florida

In a continuation of its expansion across the country to provide new senior living options, Caddis® has begun developing its first Heartis® senior living community in Florida. Heartis® Venice will feature 182 spacious independent living, assisted living and memory care apartments, a host of first-class amenities, and expansive ocean views on three sides. The three-story, 191,000 square foot community, which will be located at 1199 Tamiami Trail on U.S. Highway 41 in Venice, about 19 miles south of Sarasota, is expected to be completed in summer 2020.

Caddis CEO Jason L. Signor said that the Dallas-based national healthcare real estate firm is well known for its Heartis senior communities in Texas, but has been expanding into other areas of the country.

“During the past couple of years, Caddis began developing and opening new Heartis communities in the Midwest in Illinois and Wisconsin, as well as in the Southeast in Georgia,” Mr. Signor says. “Our nationwide brand expansion has provided seniors with lavish new living options. Now we are excited to expand into Florida with a new senior community that offers residents the highest-quality amenities, a fun, active environment and all the comforts of home.”

Jud Jacobs, Executive Vice President Development and Partner, says Heartis Venice will be in an ideal location.

“Heartis Venice is being built on Roberts Bay and will be surrounded on three sides by beautiful views of the ocean,” he says. “It will also offer convenient access off Tamiami Trail and U.S. Highway 41. Plus it will be near restaurants, hotels, historic downtown Venice and Venice Beach, and within walking distance to Legacy Trail, a 12-mile bicycle and walking path. Local seniors and their families are sure to find Heartis Venice an attractive new addition to the community.”

Heartis Venice will offer a wide variety of amenities, including a swimming pool; beautifully landscaped grounds with walking paths, seating areas and pocket parks; a wellness center; beauty salon/barber shop; activity rooms; large, secured courtyards; multiple dining options with chef-prepared meals; and ongoing social and recreational activities.

Special services will include a community shuttle service, nurse-supervised staff, 24-hour emergency call system, housekeeping and laundry services, and assistance with personal activities. The new community will be managed by Solvere Living, a St. Petersburg, Fla.-based firm that manages senior living communities across the country. The architect is Lantz-Boggio, which is headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colo., and the general contractor is Marietta, Ga.-based Freese Johnson.

About Heartis Caddis®, a national healthcare real estate firm based in Dallas, launched the Heartis® senior living brand in early 2013 to reflect its mission of helping seniors live life to the fullest. In addition to Heartis Venice, Caddis is currently developing or has opened Heartis communities in Suwanee and Fayetteville, Ga.; Orland Park and Peoria, Ill.; Brookfield and Glendale near Milwaukee, Wis.; and in the Texas cities of Arlington, Bedford, Conroe, Fort Worth, Cleburne, Clear Lake, Cypress, Amarillo, Longview, Waco and San Antonio.
