The illustrations below were prepared by the architectural firm of Ghafari Associates, LLC, in collaboration with representatives from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) and CMAP staff. Representatives from UIC included staff from various university departments and administrative divisions, as well as students. Previous student projects also helped to inform the site selection for this exercise.

Over the course of three meetings during spring of 2009, ideas from university representatives and Ghafari Associates were placed in the context of CMAP's scenarios. The results of this work are shown in the posters below.

(If you wish to print out PDF versions of the posters, they are available here.)
