Here's a couple nice photos. The first is the new skyline, should those that are proposed and under construction continue their paths to completion. The second is the new skyline at night with the Spire drawn in.

Chicago Project - Tasks 1 & 2

Task One (Monday's HW):
Select your project project theme, background, perspective, and details. Students should come to their committees with an idea of what their "cityscape" is trying to show, and why they've chosen their particular items. Please note the slideshow below for SPECIFIC names of details. Students need to come prepared.

Task Two:
Each class needs to select (and rank) 20 items they wish to build. After Wednesday's Field Trip, classes will select those buildings they wish to build. Please refer to the Class Description for more specifics and categories to consider.
