The U District Partnership (UDP) and City of Seattle are partnering to update the University District Design Guidelines, and we need your help assembling photos that we can use to get feedback from the community about the design qualities they envision for new development. We are looking for photos that demonstrate exemplary building design, as well as photos that highlight features that would not be appropriate in the U District. Photos can be from the U District, other places in Seattle, or across the world.

Here's how you can help:
1. Find a photo. You can take this picture while out and about, or find it on the internet. We are looking for a variety of building types, from high-rises to rowhouse townhouses. This could also focus on particular aspects of a design, such as materials, windows, doors, stoops, balconies, signs, etc.

2. Post or send the photo. Post the photo to Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #UDistrictBuildings2017 or upload your photo here: https://form.jotform.com/70296353136153.

If possible, include the location of the building (address or cross street) and what  you like or dislike about it. Does the building work well with the surrounding buildings? Are there high-quality materials or interesting detailing? Are there specific design features that enhance the character or help express the use?

3. Look at photos posted by others! Check out our album here: https://goo.gl/photos/45yif2xfL6QaFyN8A
 
We are collecting photos from February 6 to March 31. Please contact jpanganiban@udistrictpartnership.org or eliot.mueting@udistrictpartnership.org if you have any questions.
