2. Snow In the City

The Hoboken Manufacturers Railroad quickly gave rise to a number of opportunities, in particular, representing the same setting as the Jersey City Industrial Railroad but in a different season. This altered my research: architecturally, Hoboken and Jersey City were nearly identical. But a big northeastern city in winter—particularly in the 30s and 40s—was something I'd not investigated. So, I had the great pleasure of determining just what kind of modeling challenge I'd set for myself.

Pay particular attention to how grimy and dirty the snow gets in the streets. Also note what it does on building roofs. These are the subtle details about which I needed to learn.
