DOW JONES

MRA is currently designing the renovation of several newspaper printing facilities for Dow Jones, the parent company of The Wall Street Journal. The Journal prints over 2 million copies daily in facilities located throughout the United States, strategically selected to allow for easy regional distribution. The technical requirements for this project are very demanding. The facilities must remain 100% operational for the duration of work, which involves changes to the press lines and the roofs above them. In some instances it also involves the addition of a new press line and a reorganization of the mail room, which is where the newspapers are bundled and loaded onto trucks for distribution. A thorough understanding of the operation of each printing facility including materials storage, staging, plate production and installation, line operation, and distribution phasing as well as maintenance procedures is essential to the success of this project.

THE ONLY INITIATIVE CAME FROM AN AMERICAN ARCHITECT

Although three years ago the local authorities announced the intention to build a Brancuşi Museum located in Targu Jiu, the project has not materialized yet. Mihai Radu, an American architect native of Romania is the designer of this project. In 2005, he arrived in Targu Jiu together with a group of American businessmen and purchased a land of 5000sm in the vicinity of the Endless Column as the location for the future museum. Nothing happened, the Targu Jiu complex in the meantime is being used as a background for elaborate pictures of local weddings and baptisms, without even being included in a visitor circuit. Further more nothing was invested, not even in the most modest amounts for a much needed renovation of Hobita Memorial House, a famous location for the sometime ago sculpture camp which lies nowadays in a severe damage condition.
