...Harvard-Allston Partnership Fund has been a high note in an often tenuous inter-community relationship. The program provides small grants to local non-profit organizations to support community development projects in the Allston area. The first grants were distributed in June, and the project will begin accepting its second set of proposals this month. The plan is in line with Harvard’s commitment to support the Allston community, and we are encouraged by its progress...

I realized that we could be working in the prisons forever and doing good work, but it wouldn't matter if we didn't address the bigger cultural questions, the things that were causing crime...
CityCenter could mark the much hoped-for resurgence of Las Vegas, but then again, it might mark the end of an era, a sort of peak the city won't easily reach again. Owing in part to wobbly credit markets, Feldman doesn't think another project of this size will be completed in the city for at least a decade. (See pictures of Las Vegas...
