Windshield Survey
Sentinel City is an urban environment where the housing and commercial buildings appear to be of varying ages, with the newest and most well-kept buildings seen in Nightingale Square. The majority of the buildings are attached structures made of brick and no solar panels or windmills are present. There are signs of building disrepair in the Industrial Heights and Casper Park neighborhoods as evidenced by graffiti and broken windows. The buildings are close together with not much open space around them or throughout the city for that matter. Open space in the city is limited and there is one park. There is minimal foliage scattered throughout the city and no houses appear to have yards. The neighborhoods are designated with signs and the boundaries are also apparent due to differences in amenities and housing. For example, the neighborhood of Nightingale Square offers a tennis, a grocery store and new condominiums compared to Industrial Heights’ soup kitchen and old housing projects. There are various other amenities and hangouts seen throughout Sentinel. Examples include the school yard, restaurants (i.e. Italian cuisine, Lilly’s, donut shop, sushi), markets (i.e. Joe’s Grocery, Bodega Market and Deli, food stands), coffee shops, fine art gallery, book store and a park. Residents use numerous means of transportation to travel throughout the city. People walk, bike, drive private vehicles and ride the bus.

The city’s population is mainly Caucasian, however, many different ethnical and cultural backgrounds are present in the city as evidenced by the people seen walking around, various restaurants and clothing of the residents.
