Investigating a Site in City The city itself provides a text richer than any other you will read this semester. Using old maps, prints, and photographs, but primarily your own eyes and mind, you will have the opportunity to apply the knowledge gained in the course to reading a site of your choosing. This semester-long project will be due in five parts; the assignments vary in length from two to six pages, a total of approximately twenty-six pages.
