The environment and atmosphere of this restaurant is a very sketchy and unprofessional feeling. The servers make customers feel that they are a bother to them. The music that plays all day long is country, blasting over the restaurant, which made it hard to hear anyone talk. The inside is not kept up either. Parts of the ceiling were falling onto tables and the floor and the server simply stated that it was because of the rain but never did anything about it. The bathrooms…
The building of the Station Nightclub was constructed in approximately 1946. Many restorations and repairs were made to the building since the time of construction by different owners to fulfill their business needs. The building was a wood-frame construction with wooden shingles on the exterior walls that also included a flat roof, but the interior walls surrounding the stage were staffed with sound proof polyurethane insulating foam. Windows were located on the north side of the building and on the east side of the front entrance. All of the windows had security bars on them (this could be an issue!). The building had only four doors; a front main door, a bar side exit door, a platform exit door, and a kitchen exit door. The building was equipped with a fire alarm; however it was not connected to a nearby fire department alarm office. At the time of the incident, the building wasn’t protected by any sprinkler or extinguishment systems.…

The five different locations that I observed were Forever 21, La Carreta, Miami Dade College, Santa’s Enchanted Forest, and Primera Iglesia Alianza Hispana. These venues aren’t all similar but, the one thing they have in common is they aren’t ashamed to express their style of music to the world. They all attract certain types of people to their locations like for example, La Carreta which is a Caribbean restaurant, here the audience they want to attract are mainly Hispanics and this because they mostly put on Latin music like bachata, Latin pop, and Mexican music. The difference between the venues is the purpose they serve, for example, Forever 21 is a clothing store for teenagers, Miami Dade College is a college campus, Santa’s Enchanted Forrest…
. To conduct an ethnography we formed a group of three, which consisted of Mic Cahla, Daniel, and myself. As a group we decided to do our ethnography on biker bars. We choose to go to Cruisers on Thursday, April 17 and again on Saturday, April 19. We also tried to meet at Curley’s prior to meeting at Cruisers on Saturday, but it was too cold and windy for anyone to be outside on the patio, and if you are under 21 that is the only place you are allowed. On Thursday we all met up at Cruisers at 4:00pm. It was a little early in the day, so it wasn’t super crowded but gave us a chance to really concentrate on the surroundings. We went back on Saturday night at 6:30pm hoping a band was playing at 7:00, but there wasn’t. It was slightly more crowded than on Thursday, and we also stayed later until 9:30pm.…
The air is tainted with unnatural fumes of grease, wood, and burnt electrical tape. Oil slicks stain the floor. Thick wooden shelves sag unnervingly close to buckling under the weight of old house paint and power tools. A workbench lies buried beneath papers, rulers, cans, and metal shards. An uncomfortable growl pours from the water heater. Most people wouldn’t describe my grimy garage as pleasant, but I love spending my free time here. It’s where I built a 2 ft trebuchet in sixth grade, a 4 ft trebuchet in seventh grade, and plan to build an 8 ft trebuchet this winter break. It’s where I built a battlebot and slapped an Arduino microcontroller on top to give it intelligence. Ever since I sat watching jets shake…
On January 6th, 2013, my friend Kaya and I made our way downtown. We had tickets to see the 8 p.m. show of Blue Man Group at the Astor Place Theater. Upon arrival to the venue, my reservations about the experience became even more acute; the theater looked like some kind of underground grunge dungeon I’ve heard about and warned of. We entered the theater lobby where I immediately noticed the concession and souvenir stand, because aside from the usual assortments of cookies, popcorns and soft drinks, the top recommended item to buy was a poncho. My suspicions instantly hit their zenith.…
I had departed early on Thursday for my descent back to the cold chilly city of Pittsburgh. During the day, my friend who attends Duquesne University in downtown invited me to a night on the town with her and her friends to go to the 3Lau concert at Club Diesel. Usually the club is over 21 on every night, but Thursday’s are different you only have to be 18 years of age or older. Whenever she announced that 3Lau would be performing there, I became too enthusiastic and eager. I had witnessed them once before and they were remarkable, so I immediately agreed to go with them.…
A space must attract the public so that it will be used. Project for Public Spaces, or PPS, states in their article “What Makes a Successful Public Space?” that the success of a space depends on “[w]hether [it] is comfortable and presents itself well . . .”. Legacy Gardens is an attractive environment for the use of students. The space is presented in a professional manner; it is adjacent to the college, and contains organized, square features such as the seating blocks and planters. The large fountain creates ambient noise, which is relaxing for the stressed student or staff member. The professional atmosphere of this area provides a calm, focused environment, and is, therefore, inviting to students.…
