Look
for our next eMain Neighborhood update on August 29, 2001.
The
August 8, 2001 meeting was cancelled. Our next report will cover
topics discussed in our August 22, 2001, eMain team meeting.
Panel backs Main Street buildings plan
Planning
officials endorsed a $20 million plan to renovate most of a historic
block on Main Street, including replacing two buildings that partially
collapsed two months ago. Waterford Investments LLC wants to construct
two new buildings at 101 and 103 W. Main St. and renovate the structures
from 105 to 119 W. Main to create space for a hotel, apartments,
stores, offices and restaurants. The new and renovated buildings
would have a total of 230,000 square feet of space in four stories
and a lower level.

Downtown
gets new boost. With the nearly completed Glassworks building as
a backdrop, developers announced plans for more new downtown housing,
including 100 units on land they'll buy from the city of Louisville.
The new units -- roughly half condominiums, half apartments -- will
be built by partners in the original Glassworks project.

Industry-Related News
Software
offers to map out maze of electrical circuits
Every
homeowner knows the problem, and so do a lot of apartment dwellers.
Somebody flips on one more appliance, and the lights go off. It's
not clear which parts of the house are affected. Here's what would
be great: You go to the laptop computer and bring up a drawing that
shows all of the rooms in your house. You find the location of any
of the lights that went off, put the cursor on one, and click. The
computer tells you what else is out, and directs you to the breaker
switch that will turn it all back on. LG&E Enertech, a nonregulated
subsidiary of LG&E Energy, has just such a computer program
for commercial and industrial users.

Web awards show still a winner
This
may have been the year of dot-gloom. Perhaps that's why the recent
Webby Awards ceremony, hosted in San Francisco, was filled with
self-effacing dot-bomb humor and a sense of togetherness after the
storm. "Tonight we are not only honoring excellence, but tenacity
and survival," said Webby Awards founder Tiffany Schlain.
