Neighborhood analysis assignment due on February 6

January 30, 2020 / / 0 Comments

In class today we reviewed the guidelines for the neighborhood analysis assignment; see guidelines here.  Your presentation should be about 5 minutes long and make use of the voice memos and videos you recorded and photos you took. Use Prezi, PowerPoint, or other presentation software to create your presentation. The first hour of our February 6 class meeting will be devoted to finishing up your presentations.

We reviewed a few mapping websites in class: NYCityMap, which displays aerial photographs from 1924-2012 (choose Map Type menu on upper right) and OASIS, best for displaying land use. The New York Public Library’s Digital Collections are a great place to search for historic primary sources, and OldNYC.org geolocates historic photos from the NYPL collection on a map of New York City.

Looking forward to your presentations next week. Please get in touch with any questions about the assignment.

~Prof. Leonard
