Yet not having visited the area, and with most coverage focused on individual designs, it was hard to get an overall idea of the 25-year (and counting) project that is transforming the once-blighted area into an area with "creative work space, restaurants, grassy parks and � with the addition of Samitaur Tower I � exhibit and performance space for the many dimensions of culture." So I decided to map the various buildings and installations to get a better handle on the ongoing project. Be sure to click on the image below for a better graphic.
