I picked "Washington Square Park" as my NY community since I often pass by the place. Whenever I feel tired of computer and need some rest, I go to Washington square park with a cup of coffee and sit there for a half an hour, listening to my favorite music. It is my way of releasing stress! (and I'm pretty sure a lot of other NYU student does same :)
​The weather was perfect on the day I went out for sketching. After I decided to sketch the place, I started to look for objects that can define the park. The most known object would be the Washington Square Arch. As a starting point, I drew the front view of the arch. Also, I remembered how beautiful the night view of the park is. So I started drawing street lamps
Interactive prototype:

I wanted to make a google map with my sketches. If you click/tap on the street lamp in the first sketch, the screen will change to the second sketch.
