New York, Boston, Chicago, and other major metros have a lot of construction activity, but also a lot of architects. It's a competitive field made more so by the sheer number of talented firms in the same handful of cities. That contributes to the culture of stress and overwork that many architects bemoan [...]. By contrast, an ambitious architecture practice can carve out a niche for itself in a second-tier city, where the scene is often dominated by "legacy" firms that play it safe. — citylab.com

The Wild Turkey Visitor Center in this article is freaking awesome, and the architects DeLeon and Primmer are lovely, gracious people who have been so supportive of the Kentucky GSA program for architecture students. Big kudos to them on both counts!
People get over the past and stop making excuses. It should be alright to hire someone who is black and qualified for this job. Including myself. Money does not seem like a problem for any of you so why not spend it. My salary has not went up since the recession. I live in a small town and work from a small office. My plans that I design are for enormous buildings that need some reconstruction.
