Mission: To photograph all of the major Leechburg intersections. There are currently 68 intersections planned to be photographed. This number may increase or decrease depending on the amount of room I'll have. This page will reside on it's own account in the future. I will have 16 MB of space to work with thus affecting the amount of information I will post. The pictures are not high quality as to fit as many as possible on the site. It's currently planned to have a photograph of every possible direction of each intersection. Thus if I have an entry for Second Street and Center, there would be a photograph for Center-East, Center-West, Second-North, and Second-South. If there is more room, some additional views may be incorporated.
Time: I completed just over 25% of the picture taking in the summer of 2002. The process was harder than I imagined as it took over 2 hours to complete merely 68 pictures. Now after some photographing in 2004, there are 125 pictures available. The newest are intersections going up Second and First Street up to Logan Avenue
New!: I will be completing a new high resolution version in 2006. Since I'm no longer restricted to 16 MB of space (I could devote 2GB on the project alone), I will create a new high resolution version. This will involve taking all the pictures again. Each picture will be 2048 x 1536 pixels in size and be about 1.5MB each. There will also be thumbnailed versions as well. UPDATE [3/21/2006]: I have uploaded a new high-resolution example set. There are going to be alot more improvements with the design, etc past this one, I just wanted to display the high resolution images. |
Map: The map below indicates where all major intersections will be photographed. Red dots declare the intersection locations. Click on them to see more. This map will be replaced with a flash map some time in 2004.
