I know. I'thousand weird. I like making maps. It'southward fun. And therapeutic. And lord knows I need therapy. Click click click drag…. ten hours later… click drag click elevate… xx years after… click…
Draaaaag…
Then, yes, I recently designed this sweet footling "Food Map" of Asheville's River Arts District (RAD) and asked the venues on the map to assistance me have it printed and distributed as a rack card. I thought it might exist a useful tool for tourists and locals alike, and a valuable thing for the restaurants, cafes, nutrient trucks, and other food and beverage vendors in that area. And then far everyone seems to love it, especially the gallery owners who have said that they get asked "100 times a twenty-four hour period" where to eat in the RAD.
I've expanded the info that's on the rack card to post here on my web log, and I also saved it as a PDF file that you can download and print by clicking the link below. I hope that y'all will send your friends, family, and visitors to this page whenever they enquire you, "Where tin can I eat in the RAD?"
