I have updated my article on German Village - added some photos and such.  This was my first article for my history blog and it is still one of my favorites.  This really is a fascinating building and it continues to draw historians and researchers from around the world - in fact, we have a scheduled visit from a NYC architect in the next few weeks. 

This is one of my favorite work projects and I think it turned out exceptionally well.

I have also learned that since the German Village website went live, a Wikipedia article has been created and updated on it - cool.

German Village today (left) and during a WWII test bombing event (right).  Note one half has the red clay tile roof and the other half of the building is a gray slate roof.  Clearly, this is a residential structure which has enormous implications for WWII policy on civilians and enemy combatants.
