This was my (better) entry for Ronen Bekerman's City Life contest. I was going for a representation of the constant destruction and subsequent rebuilding that goes on in cities.

The layout was inspired by the river intersection in Chicago near Wells & Wacker, although the buildings themselves aren't necessarily meant to represent actual buildings.
