East High Street model, Hamilton Ohio, 2012 ("the preview")

Greetings all,

I apologize for yet another delay in posting.  I've been caught up in the next 3D sketchup model and admittedly I can bury myself in these things very deeply.

This post is a break from what I thought would be the blog format of looking at the past models, reviewing them and highlighting anything learned since then.  Instead, we're skipping around in the listing taking a brief and informal look at the most recent model, East High Street, Hamilton Ohio.  The reason for the switch, demand from others, which goes to show what could happen if you just ask me.

Hamilton Crossings 3D Model Part 4 - Follow Up

Previously on Planner 47 Blog

Hamilton Crossings was uploaded and reviewed (the relevant part can be found here)

And now the follow up.

Hamilton Plaza Follow-Up

Follow-Up

This is the "last thoughts" portion of the post.  I score the model and give a brief explanation why it received said score.  I also thought it would be amusing to give awards (and/or anti-awards) about notable items within the model.  This includes things caught myself or comments from others that have viewed the model.  There is also a Final Score which ranges from 0 to 10, whole numbers only and they are relative to the entire line of 3D models created.  A final note, this type of review post might be expanded to other topics in urban planning, design and architecture, and other related items.  It all depends on what I come across or what others bring to my attention.

And so, without further delay...

Hamilton Plaza Wrap-Up/Review

First off, my apologies for the delay, there were a few other projects I had to complete.  Work is also proceeding on some newer Sketchup 3D models.

Without further delay, the wrap up for Hamilton Plaza 3D model.

Model: Hamilton Plaza Retrofit
Location: Hamilton, Ohio
Original Completion Date: February 2010

The first thing that comes to mind each time I see this model is the fact that I was incorrect, as this wasn't my very first urban planning retrofit/architecture retrofit 3D model (a post on that is coming).  This still doesn't take away from the other main point I gather when looking back on this model - how far I've come and how far I have to go in terms of 3D modeling in Sketchup.

Happy 4th of July
