      This is one of my crazy schemes to amuse myself while trying out a business idea. I love mixing new and old, architecture, history and I love my country. (One of the few peace-loving patriots left in Ireland!)

      This site is dedicated to Cork City centre, the town where I grew up.

      I also 3D printed it:

          Very interesting concept. What software are you using to provide the map and overlays?

          I like that you have drawn the city in SketchUp (I assume). The fact that I can zoom in and then click on selected buildings to launch info about the building is a very neat concept. I also liked that your web page gave me the option to click on something like Hotels and then the only things highlighted in the map was hotels. Again, a very interesting concept.

              ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ˜ฎ what an extremely impressive, extensive and above all enchantingly beautiful work - much more beautiful than clicking on a google aerial photograph only for example !! I also like the following transfer into your interactive web application very much and it lets feel your connection to your home place - great!!!! So I wish all the success for your business idea ! - and please post on how this project is developing ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘
              PS: Aren't most of the other Irish not peace-loving people as well โ“ ๐Ÿ˜„

              forgot to ask - how big is the printed model?
