WATER. LIKE A BIRD MAKING ITS NEST, ELEMENTS OF
NATURE ARE WOVEN TOGETHER TO SUPPORT LIFE
Inspiring visitors to engage in sustainable actions
is the mission of the design and exhibits at the
Oregon Zoo’s Education Center.
The center—the fifth project funded by the zoo
bond—provides a home base for thousands of
children who participate in camps and classes
annually and serves as a regional hub, expanding
the zoo's youth programs through collaborations
with U.S. Fish and Wildlife and other partners.
The center includes classrooms, meeting spaces,
gardens, and a Nature Exploration Station (NESt),
inspiring visitors to get outside, learn about nature,
and take action on behalf of nature.
Illustrating that “Small Things Matter,” the zoo
provides its 1.7 million annual visitors with
interactive exhibits that demonstrate how actions
can help maintain a healthy planet.
The center creates dialogue between the built and
natural environment, with each interior space
offering a corresponding visible and connected

High quality parks and public spaces are an
essential feature of successful neighbourhoods
where people want to live, work, play and invest.
They are vital to people’s health and the local

local and national leaders to commit to improving
parks and public spaces.

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

2. Barking Up the Right Tree
By Kelli Anderson
For Kelly Acree and her husband, tired of the dust bowls,
mud pits and general discomfort of the dog parks in
their Dallas, Texas, neighborhoods, the thought of
creating an indoor dog park seemed like a good idea.
The resulting success of their 50,000-square-foot
indoor dream-come-true in March 2009, Unleashed,
has proven that others think so, too.
"We researched all around the country and many parks
lacked amenities," said Acree about their effort to
identify the best and avoid the worst of many outdoor
dog parks. "Although some are really trying—even
having toy/treat vending machines—it's as much
about the owner as the dog. You exercise your dog
30 minutes and go home in a traditional park, but our
customers spend three or four hours here easily—
some all day."
And there's a good reason why. With a 25,000-square-foot
space dedicated for indoor freedom, dogs can romp
with other four-legged friends monitored by trained
attendants in a climate-controlled, comfortable
space, while their owners can take advantage of free
Wi-Fi, as they sip a cappuccino in the café, pick up a
new toy at the pet center or relax in the lounge areas
overlooking the main floor.
Describing itself as a new kind of amusement park, complete
with waterfall, spa-like feel and a soon-to-be-completed outdoor
park with splash area, it is ideally suited for the American family
that more and more includes Rover as one of its core members.
And it's not just about bells and whistles—although there are
plenty. Attention has also been paid to the basics. As anyone
who has been around dogs can attest, "tell-tail" signs of a doggie
domain can be unsightly and smelly. However, thanks to a
heavy-duty HVAC system, giant 20-foot ceiling fans and an anti-microbial
artificial turf with a proprietary drainage system beneath
the flooring, Unleashed has ensured that its environment smells
fresh and stays spotless.
"We are really seeing an increase, week by week of new clients,"
Acree said of their recession-proof business that has registered
more than 7,000 clients so far. "We had one customer tell us that
she has decided to forgo eating out to come here. It says a lot
about what people are willing to do for their companions."
Like the evolution of fitness and aquatic centers before them,
successful recreational spaces for dogs and their owners—
whether indoor or out—are offering space for fitness as well as
comfort, community and creative fun that are good for the users
and great for business.
And while Americans have always loved their dogs, something
has profoundly shifted in our relationship to man's best friend.
One has only to look at the booming pet industry of designer dog
apparel, gourmet and organic dog food and TV shows like "The
Dog Whisperer" to recognize that dogs have moved in from the
traditional doghouse and into the family unit itself.
For many who now wait longer to get married and to have
children, dogs become their first "family," which may explain why
across the country so many community groups are clamoring for
dog parks of their own. To date, an estimated 1,200 dog parks—
many created in partnership with community groups and their
TIPS & TRENDS FROM
TODAY'S HOTTEST DOG PARKS
3. Best in Show
Most dog parks have been designed over the years to
give dogs a simple and secure space to run and
play, yet have often overlooked a key user of this
recreational space: the people. But today, dog
parks that win "best in show" are those that go
beyond the simple fenced enclosure with a list of
rules posted at the gate. They are spaces that
recognize and are responding to the changing
relationship owners have with their pets and the
desire they have to create community with others
in a safe, regulated environment.
"People see the benefit of exercising their dogs and
themselves, and are willing to pay for a safe,
regulated park," said Pam Stanley, owner of
nationally award-winning Shaggy Pines Dog Park
in Grand Rapids, Mich. "A lot of dog parks,
especially city dog parks, don't temperament-test
the dogs or make sure they are vaccinated. We're
strict on that and require all vaccinations and
temperament-test the dogs on site. People
appreciate it—it's a healthier and safer place."
Stanley is quick to point out, however, that most city
parks have a more difficult time regulating their
parks without the kind of funding needed to do so.
However, for the very popular dog parks created by the
park district in Indianapolis, keeping dogs and
owners safe and dog parks more regulated has
proven to be not only possible but revenue-generating
as well.
"The initial push for a dog park came from our user groups," said
Kent Knorr, manager of revenue and special facilities with the
parks and recreation department of the city. "Broad Ripple Dog
Park was our first and a major success. We sold passes that
were available in January and were sold out by spring. It's
become such a phenomenon that people are always asking how
to get them in their own communities."
To date, Indianapolis has built two other larger dog parks and is
in the process of planning more. What Knorr appreciates about
their system is that it not only generates much-needed revenue
through a variety of passes that can be purchased on an as-needed
or annual-membership basis, but their system also
allows the city to regulate the parks' users and their safety.
Dog owners who provide proof of updated vaccinations and pay
a fee are given reader cards that activate the magnetic gate
system at the city's dog parks. Discounts are given for those with
more than one dog or for those buying passes late in the season
to further encourage people to abide by the rules and participate
in the program. Because so many people now use Indianapolis's
growing number of dog parks, they have recently instituted a VIP
("Very Important Pooch") option that allows users to access all
their dog parks instead of specific ones, as in years past.
Another benefit of issuing membership passes and charging
even a modest fee is that it imbues the members with an even
greater sense of ownership. User groups that usually invest a
large amount of time and energy to create dog parks are typically
motivated to see to it that their parks are well kept; issuing
passes makes it even more so. "Members really treat it like it's
theirs," Stanley says of her park's clients. "They're part owners
and are very good about picking up after themselves. We found
that they'll even pay it forward and pick up after others who miss
theirs."
Knorr agrees, indicating that in his 10 years of dog park
experience, people are good to clean up after their pets. It is a
non-issue.

Paws for Thought
Making sure that a dog park is well designed and
maintained, however, is a first step that is essential to
success. Today's most-lauded dog parks are careful to
address issues of safety, comfort, aesthetics and
amenities. Like most good projects, it starts with good
planning.
Ten years ago when Martha Burgess, landscape designer
for Judith Heinz Landscape Architects in New York City,
completed one of the city's largest dog runs at the
Theodore Roosevelt Park in Manhattan, she knew
careful planning was essential to solve the existing
park's many, many problems.
"When the project began we had to work with the history
museum, the Parks Department, seven different
community groups and the architects—and we had to
appease everyone," Burgess explained about the four-year-
long process. "The planning and design process
had to be done early and up front. It can't be an
afterthought—you can't just slip it in."
Taking an existing city park and revamping its dog run meant
addressing issues of erosion from its sloping site,
unpleasant smell from years of mismanagement,
bothersome noise (barking) for nearby residents and
aesthetics to meld the area seamlessly into the larger
park space.
Changing the location from a slope to a well-drained, flatter
area of the park was an enormous step in the right
direction. Susyn Stecchi, founder of DogParks USA
and author of So You Want to Build a Dog Park: A
Comprehensive Guide for Municipalities and Private
Entities says that adequate drainage is essential to
prevent the mud pits and bog-like areas that plague so
many existing dog parks.
Likewise, having adequate space for dogs to not only run and
play, but also to prevent the wear and tear on a natural surface,
is important. "Our first park took a real beating on the turf at first,"
Knorr said. "We look for locations now that allow a bigger area.
Our two newer parks are 3 to 4 acres total, and we are able to
divide them into two sides to rest half of the property as needed.
We've found it extremely important for maintenance."
Other essential elements Stecchi recommends in all dog park
designs are shade for both dogs and their owners, water, safe
fencing and especially safe gate designs that will keep dogs from
getting out as others come in. Providing doggie waste bags,
scoopers and adequate seating are just some of the features that
make these spaces more user-friendly and clean.
Keeping their dog run clean and low-maintenance was certainly a
high priority for the Theodore Roosevelt Park project. Although
considered a large dog run by city standards at an estimated
1,500 square feet, it was not large enough to maintain turf. The
solution was a carefully chosen gravel surface that would be
gentle to paws but easily washed down each night with an
automated irrigation and drainage system to keep the area clean
and fresh.
But whether it's providing a cleanable surface or providing
sufficient space to maintain turf, making sure that there is a way
to rid the space of dog waste via receptacles, baggies and
scoopers is a must.
And while dogs don't particularly care how their parks may look,
owners and the community certainly do. Well-chosen plantings
can soften the look of a fenced area around a park's perimeter,
trees within the space offer much-needed shade and interest,
and whimsical additions like a colorful fire hydrant add an
affordable element of fun.
In the case of the Theodore Roosevelt Park, an aesthetic touch
also proved to be practical: Climbing ivy along an adjacent
apartment building wall not only looks good but absorbs some of
