...edge on Kerry by reviving the unresolved battle over NAFTA, which Kerry voted to approve a decade ago. "When it comes to bad trade agreements, I know what they do to people," Edwards said last week. "I have seen it with my own eyes what happens when the mill shuts down."

He has received acclaim for Mill Race Park, a project he did in Columbus, Indiana, which reclaimed a former industrial site in order to provide a public gathering space. The gradual slopes, which recall landforms native to the Midwest, make this enormous project seem perfectly natural...
