Building Resources

Abstract

The common practice of celebrating the end of one decade and the beginning of another at the outset of the decennial year, while a triumph of impatience over calendric accuracy, represents an eager need to invest the otherwise random events of life with structure and meaning. Collection Building shares with the Gregorian calendar the lack of a year zero; still, the passage of the odometer from nine to ten inspires a pause for that simultaneous look backward and forward.
