The DWSP Tree and Landscape Subcommittee with a grant from the WS Garden Club Council partnered with The City of Winston-Salem Vegetation Managment to add new Red Bud trees and plantings to the existing landscape beds on 5th Street between Trade and Liberty Streets. We would also like to thank Stephanie Fisher Kennedy for her leadership and hard work with this project and others as the Chair of the Subcommittee.

Thank you to my friends at CMJW Architecture (CJMW's predecessor firm started in 1906) for a tour of their new home in the 8,000 square foot office suite in the @525 Vine Building in the Innovation Quarter. They moved from their home of more than 35 years in Brookstown earlier this year.

| Lot 63 just opened on February 17 at 612 S. Main Street in the heart of Old Salem. |
 |
| This space used to be occupied by the Moravian Bookstore which has relocated and the building is owned by the Salem Congregation. |
 |
| Current hours are 7am to 3pm but will soon be expanded to stay open until 10pm on weekdays and 11pm on Weekends with a taproom for beer and wine. |
 |
| Lot 63 is the business name and is co-owned by four people: Ned Erickson (everyone knows Ned), Andrew Craver (Moravian Pastor), Chelsea Wilkerson (Wilkerson Bakery), and Alan Fox (Native to Winston-Salem currently residing in Houston, TX) |
 |
| Lease was signed over the summer and required building renovation began. |
 |
| Given its location in the middle of Old Salem, this will be a place where many folks form a first impression of Winston-Salem. |
 |
| This is a place to hang out in Old Salem without requiring a museum ticket. |
 |
| Table was custom made my an amish friend of Ned's |
