Art Law

Nobody could get Frederick Law Olmsted to sit still. He was filled with energy, adventure, and dreams of changing the world. As a boy, he found refuge in the peace and calm of nature, and later as an adult, he dreamed of designing and creating access to parks for a growing and changing America. When New York City held a contest for the best park design for what would become Central Park, Olmsted won and became the father of landscape architecture. He went on to design parks across America, including Yosemite National Park and even the grounds for the United States Capitol.

Whenever laws are passed, huge opportunities are created. In 1933, liquor prohibition was lifted in USA. This created a huge opportunity for gains for people who were alert and saw it coming. A similar trend is happening in the legalization of marijuana. Several states have allowed partial legalization for medical purposes and a few for recreational use. This provides a great opportunity to reap windfall gains. But with this opportunity, comes huge risks.
