We loved the article and the pictures. To quote our friend Vicky (formerly of YIKES), “Great article… I love how Mia’s now on record as being ‘scared.'”

Shoutout in Technically Philly
TechnicallyPhilly.com, a blog covering technology, startups and venture capital in Philadelphia, wrote an article about YIKES and our sustainable business practices. It focused on the buildings and listed tips we give on making your office more eco-friendly.
We are very happy to get a mention on a blog that is so important to the Philly technology community.

Shoutout in Grid!
We love Grid Magazine! We are very happy to have a blurb under their “Green Building” section in the January 2011 issue. One quick correction: we are aiming to be Pennsylvania’s first LEED Platinum rehab (not the Nation’s). But then again, we may also be the first multi-family, mixed-use LEED Platinum project in US, so we might be the Nation’s first for something LEED-related. 🙂
Article in Philadelphia Neighborhoods blog
Last week Lauren Macaluso from the blog “Philadelphia Neighborhoods” came by the buildings to do a piece on our project. It came out yesterday, it’s pretty cool and even has an accompanying video.
