We at Surgical Artistry, the offices of Dr. Calvin Lee (acupuncturist & general surgeon) and Dr. Tammy Wu (plastic surgeon), have used the chinese character that means "dream" as a representation of our project of expansion. We took over a very large office in Modesto, in the village one area, right across from the proposed area for the Modesto Tivoli Project. This was part of a big dream that we had.
The Tivoli Specific Plan (454 acre area) includes 286 acres of residential land use (3,241 residential dwelling units), 14 acres of neighborhood-serving commercial, 6 acres of general commercial, and 67 acres of regional-serving commercial, 2 acres of professional office space, a 14 acre elementary school site, and about 30 acres of parks and open space. For more information visit the Tivoli Project on the City of Modesto webpage.
Enjoy this collection of dream quotes that helped motivate us. The sources are from various websites.
