Exhibit Plan
April 14, 2014 | 2 Comments
Omeka
For my online Omeka exhibit, I intend to organize my items into an exhibit showing D.C roads in general terms. For this exhibit, I would like to include a variety of materials such as maps, and websites. Eventually I would like to add a few books into my exhibit, but have yet to go to the library to investigate which books would be the most helpful. So far my items include:
- 2 items on the grid system of roads in general
- 1 map of the original plan of D.C
- 2 items on the D.C road layout and design in specifics
- 1 item on the purpose of the design and traffic circles in specifics
My items are listed on my Omeka site which include the author of the source, the type of source, and title of each.

I’m curious to know what map of the original plan of DC you’re using, would you mind sharing it?
