2nd City Zoning

2nd City Zoning is an interactive map that lets you:

• find out how your building is zoned
• learn where to locate your business
• explore zoning patterns throughout the city

To make Chicago’s zoning code digestible by humans, we took inspiration from one of our favorite games: Sim City 2000. It started with the color scheme and from there we got a little carried away. Graphics, sounds, music, oh my.

2nd City Zoning is entirely open source and built with open data.
