Boston’s Fire and the fun of blogging
Hello again!
Today is the day for new experiments. I’ve put some slides into a show for you to view and think on Boston (as we discussed in intro on Friday). For those in Urban Planning and other visitors, I hope this is an interesting series of maps for you to look at. The context of our discussion was the birth of the preservation movement in Boston, including the effects of the fire (1872) and the concepts of visual values, cityscape, and vista.
I’ll be posting more slide shows in the future if this works well!

Hope you’re having a great weekend!
