Assignment 3: Complete by Monday March 23
Last week we talked about what we liked about North Minneapolis. For this assignment, we'll answer questions about what we might like to make better.
So the questions to answer are "What would you change or improve?" and "How would you do it?"
You can answer by writing a comment to this post, or by making a new post showing what some of your changes might look like (for example, a map showing where some things you would fix are, or where you would build something new, or a photo or an animation of a building you might make).
Some thoughts that might be helpful in answering the questions and designing your improvements:

- What things need fixing? (you can answer by writing a comment here)
- How could you make them better? (you can answer by writing a comment here)
- Where are those things you would fix? (you can make a new post with a picture of a Google Earth map showing those places)
- What would a change look like? (you can take a picture or a post a movie of a SketchUp model showing the change you would build)
