Approximately 4000 square miles of high resolution digital aerial imagery collected in Illinois by Ayres Associates in 2014. Thank you to all of our friends for making this year a tremendous success! Throughout the year we’ve collected snapshots of the unique cultural, historical, and natural sites in your communities and wanted to share them with everyone.
Part I – Football in Illinois
Memorial Stadium: The Fighting Illini of the University of Illinois
Soon the high school championships, college bowl games, and professional football playoffs of the 2014 season will be behind us and we’ll be again looking at the empty stadiums and football fields in our communities for a few months.
Ayres Associates collected snap shots of several fields and stadiums throughout the projects we flew in Illinois this past spring… as they sat empty waiting for the fans. As it turns out, there’s a lot of football fields within 4000 square miles! Here’s a sampling:
