The location I chose to write about for Project 4 is “The Brooklyn Bridge”. I chose this location because the history behind it interests me a lot and I wanna learn about the historical values it has behind it. So I will be writing about the history behind the bridge. I am very excited to research all the information behind it and write a well developed story about it. I decided to change my location that I used for Project 2 because I wrote about two buildings rather than a specific location.

Thinking about project 4 made me contemplate if I should reuse the Brooklyn Bridge as my location or to discover a new location due the the fact that with all the research I’ve done on the Brooklyn Bridge why not use this opportunity to learn about another. Now to find another location that interests would require me to take another walk around City Tech maybe I should walk the direction towards Adams Street to see if I can find something new there. I’ve been thinking about the location ever since Professor Rosen announced project 4 and I’m getting very eager to take this walk around CityTech and try to find this new location. This location will have to have two interesting vantage points, also must come with an abundance of credible sources where I could utilize to support my claims.

First of all since I received project 4 its been a hard time thinking about the location I want to talk about because the location has to be the same for both the classes Speech and English. But after thinking a lot I decided that I have no option instead of going with BHS because that was the topic for my informative speech. The one big that gets me worried is what two stories are there on BHS i can talk about in my essay. As per my research from my informative speech there is not much information out there on BHS expect on its official webpage. But if I take everything from a single resource that would not be considered credible. That is the reason I wanted to write about Brooklyn Bridge because there is tons of information online. One question that came in my mind is that I want to use the reading did in class about BHS but I dont know how to use it correctly. Like where to put that information, how to cite it, can that be counted as one of my stories. And if you can give me an example  how to relate it with something so i get two stories.

Since I am too lazy to think of another location as our walking tour, and Fulton Street (Mall) is the only place I am interested in Downtown Brooklyn; therefore, I think I will keep my location, Fulton Street (Mall) as my topic on my project #4. In this project, I will talk about this place “value”, probably the current and future value, and the personal value from people. And I also will focus on two vantage points, the owners of the store and the customers, to tell the importance of this place and why this shopping place should be in the walking tour from their point of view. However, I still have problem on this project; because Fulton Street is not as popular as Soho, there is not much creditable information on the internet. I might use the opinion on the blog, although I understand I should not do that, but they still shows people view on Fulton Street.
