Ok you may be wondering why is this post in the "urban development" thread well I have an idea and I was wondering if I could get some opinions on it.

What if there was a site online you could go look at and see all of the new "Under Construction" projects on different webcams.

Sort of like this:
http://38.112.40.106:8081/CgiStart?page=Single&Resolution=640x480&Quality=Clarity&RPeriod=0&Size=STD&PresetOperation=Move&Language=0

What do you think?

Let me know, I am not afraid of it getting shot down.

I think it's neat. It'd be especially cool for those urbanists who don't get a chance to visit downtown very often.

Exactly the reason I want to do it.

Plus we can show it off to other cities.

Depending on how your system works, I could link each individual buildings camera to the appropriate map point on the DFW Projects Google map. Currently I have the following example for Azure:
<table border=1><tr align="center">
<td colspan="2">
<b>Dallas - Fort Worth Urban Forum Projects</b></td></tr>
<tr><td width="20%" align="right"><b>Name</b></td>
<td width="80%">The Azure</td></tr>
<tr><td width="20%" align="right"><b>Stories</b></td>
<td width="80%">31</td></tr>
<tr><td width="20%" align="right"><b>Status</b></td>
<td width="80%">2007</td></tr>
<tr><td align="right"><b>Thread</b></td><td><a href='http://forum.dallasmetropolis.com/showthread.php?t=2665&goto=lastpost'>2665</a></td></tr>
<tr><td align="right"><b>Website</b></td><td><a

http://www.azureliving.com/


</a></td></tr></table>

Thread, Website, Camera would be cool as hell.

Awesome, I will work on getting everything set up and I will let everyone know when the first cam gets launched.
