Results for “maps”

Isn’t doing research an integral part of Curbed’s remit? I would’ve thought maps would be on-screen at all times in their line of work, and hopefully not too difficult to interpret correctly.

That "river" is called Balona Creek and there is a bike path along its entire length. The bike path is even labeled on Google Maps. BTW, it’s "Rey" with an e, not "Ray".

The maps were frequently wrong.

As for citing the cross streets, that could end up being time-consuming nuisance research work — also subject to error!

Curbed, you used to have maps indicating the location of the building you were writing about. For some reason, that went away… and now you don’t even mention the cross street in the article.

How about saying "located on East 29th between Madison and Park"? Otherwise I need to look it up elsewhere. And this provides meaning neighborhood info for the building (any building).

I mean, these literally abut an in-town "FARM" with chickens and goats?

I know people would love to tear down MSG for that purpose. But that wouldn’t suffice. What about Two Penn Plaza?

I once cut through the building during a sudden downpour on my way to a show at the Fox Theater. It was a very depressing walk. I’m normally a big proponent of preservation (and live in a historic district for that very reason) but in this case, I think the rebuilt facades using the original stone panels is better than if the building had actually been preserved. Here’s the view as it exists today:

Mall all of the rapid-in-name-only Rapid Buses actually rapid by giving them all dedicated lanes… and then confiscate the cars and licenses of anyone who drives in them. They’ll be rapid then and thus, attractive (http://media.metro.net/riding_metro/maps/images/rapid_system.pdf).

This is the block that Apartment 3N overlooks:

Speaking of which, I was waiting for Josh or someone at Curbed to reference this NYT article, which reflects just how "white" intown Atlanta is getting and has gotten over the past seventeen or so years. It goes through multiple cities, but also Atlanta, presenting an actual map and estimate of the demographic change. The biggest change has occurred in the very intown areas that I listed above (O4W, Reynoldstown, Cabbagetown, Kirkwood, Grant Park, EAV, etc., etc.):

If you scroll to the major map at just under halfway through the article, and look in the upper right hand corner of the map, there is a search field where you put in a zip code. Put in an Atlanta zip code and you will see a detailed map reflecting these demographic shifts according to data gathered over nearly twenty years.
