It is a mess, however, I understand your frustration. I have not had any architects there with me for 2.5 yrs. My colorful surroundings , paid for by the state , limited me to see only drawings . Genlser , was to do the movie theatre, and thought they would propose a complex. It was obvious the moment i arrived that it was wrong.You and I , thursday on the island. will be able to better assess how to move forward. I m not sure what you mean by just recieved as builts. for library? Call early, I will be traveling and on . most of the day.

So I'm sending you some thoughts which, although they may sound blunt, will at least, I hope, have the virtue of being honest. Whether we part ways or continue to work together, I think it's important that I be frank with you so that we both know what the issues are before we proceed any further. Little Saint James is, of course, a wonderful property, but my fear is that the way we are currently approaching it is highly inefficient at best, and is, at worst, setting us both up for disappointment if not downright disaster. As I see it, the principal causes of this inefficiency are as follows: EFTA00759064 stria-moss:I pupk 44,upploo Li! 43prj aq MOS pa sr Lay `QJWA 1 J02 ay 仰J ltrapa1 0ICILITEX0 JO aq4 Airaqg lEtp--pirkunoo I 0KEq pQ1pallIlt 41ST-SE41 palrulturp 2uore alp (Arift . .puop 435E 1 anq 03--lpi 【3100T lsn 甲3E a uopaagas pue 2uprpa 2UTA10p) 1E4JQ3 SE0N pUE Slap aq u!

Given, again, the specialness of the property, I would hope that you and I could come to an agreement about a different approach going forward- -one that would allow me to formulate the "big picture" framework that alone will make the finished product harmonious and elegant, and that will prevent it from looking (as it is currently poised to do) like a bunch of bits assembled willy-nilly with no serious thought or consideration. To that end, my professional recommendation would be to close down the job for a couple of months--at least stopping construction on the residential part--and use that time to develop an "as is" plan (as well as a carefully elaborated budget) for the project as a whole. I strongly feel that you need to do this, whether or not I remain the architect on the project. The last thing either you or I want is for Little Saint James to look--after all the time and money spent on it--weird and unattractive, yet that is exactly what will happen if work continues to proceed in the current fashion. Inevitably, in that case, you will be extremely unhappy with what you end up with, and it will all be your architect's fault! Obviously, this is not at all what I want--for you or for me. Again, I am leveling with you like this because I feel so strongly that both you and Little Saint James deserve better--and that I myself am capable of infinitely much better--than what is happening on the job right now. I do hope you will take my honesty in the spirit in which it was intended: as a respectful expression of my desire that this project be done light. With best regards, Robert PS: Don't know what is a consequence of what but I am getting equally as ill as you were last week...
