Dorms - Where the Boys Are

Thanks to Google Earth, here are aerial views of Lucas' new home.

1365 Agate Street points to this location.  The new arena is next door.  The football field is across the river.



Lucas' dorm occupies several wings.  The new Matthew Knight Arena is next door.  Looking north.


Looking south, the track and field stadium is not far.


Looking south with the football stadium below.



Anthony's dorm, Sewall Hall, is located on the northern edge of campus.  Not far from the football field and "the Hill" where lots of restaurants are located.

This view is looking north.



Looking southeast in the direction towards Denver which is 25 miles away.


Facing west. 


Looking north with the whole campus in view.  That's an intramural field at the bottom.  The band practices there.

Dorms - Where Does Everybody Live - Selena

Selena's Dorm - located on 55th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenue.  Called the Upper Eastside.

Looking east.  The dorm is near the lipstick building and Citicorp (slanted roof).  42 floors.



Looking south east, the dorm is near the East River and not far from the United Nations.

Looking north, Central Park is visible from this view.

Looking southwest, the twin spires in the upper center are the Waldorf Astoria towers on Park Avenue.



Here's a look at Selena's school located on 71st Street, also between 2nd and 3rd Avenues.

This view is looking east towards the East River and Queens.


View looking west towards Central Park.



And just for old time's sake, here's the Chicago dorm and campus.  Columbia College is in the Loop.  Also known as the financial district.   The campus is actually several buildings within a few blocks of this dorm, the University Center.

Looking north towards downtown Chicago.  Grant Park is on the right side.



Closer look at the UC Dorm, catty corner from the public library (green roof).



Looking west.  Sears Tower in upper right.



Looking southeast. Grant Park, Buckingham Fountain, and in upper right, Soldier Field, home of the Bears.
