So about 18 months ago Shelterforce magazine (the journal of the National Housing Institute, based out of New Jersey) commissioned me to write about the Winthrop. I was only too happy to do so, and jumped into the project, interviewing people all over Tacoma including residents of the Winthrop, the mayor, Prium CEO Ansara, Michael Mirra of the THA, etc. I also called on my own experience attending the early-morning meetings in 2006 when Quiqq was trying to make something happen.

Unfortunately, it was bumped a few times. But it finally went live!

You can read it here on their website.

Happy to finally have it in print.
