Said graduate student Jordan Parrott, Its an exciting project for three reasons. First, its in our own local community. Second, we get to see the results of our work made widely available because our renderings are available on Google Earth. And, finally, its enabled me to see the many alternatives available in the field of architecture. There are different avenues of work and research, things related to preservation, visualizations and development, open to us as future architects.
