In Sedona, a Rust-Covered Home Is Disguised by the Desert Landscape

Ian and Anne Rowland are married software engineers who can work from almost anywhere. And that, during New England’s long gray winters, means anywhere but Cambridge, Mass. “We wanted a place that felt very different from our home, and a building that reminded us of that difference, even if we were sitting inside, working,” Ian says.That explains why they built a vacation house in Sedona, Ariz. If you’re trying to avoid gray, there is no better place than that Yavapai County town, which is set among some of the reddest rocks on earth.Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

Former Apple Exec Lists Aspen Home for $45 Million

As Apple’s vice president of real estate, design, and construction for 13 years, Bob Bridger helped design the tech giant’s glassy, expansive stores. When he built a home in Aspen, Colo., after leaving Apple in 2015, he brought some of that sensibility to the contemporary estate, which has floor-to-ceiling windows and a “clubhouse” building with a glass garage door. Through Bridger’s relationships with vendors from his time at Apple, he connected with the owners of a quarry in Marble, Colo., and was able to handpick the stone in the house. After several years of construction, the property was completed in 2022, and Bridger is now putting it on the market for $45 million. Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

Natural-Gas Pipelines Are Old. Will Regulators Let Utilities Invest in Them?

Utilities across the country are trying to boost spending to maintain aging natural-gas pipelines. Regulators in some Democratic states seeking to limit gas use are saying not so fast.Companies including PG&E, Consolidated Edison and Public Service Enterprise Group have proposed investing billions of dollars to bolster their pipeline networks, which will remain in use for years even as more customers use electricity to cook and heat their homes. They say such spending is necessary in part to maintain safety and reliability as they work to shrink their gas systems over time. Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
