The Cincinnati Project consisted of three wooden structures that were outfitted with a variety of apertures and mirrored openings. These openings were designed to focus the viewer's attention onto isolated segments of the existing site. Each structure was bisected by a central wall that either focused the viewer's attention inward to the plaza or outward toward the urban street.
The three structures functioned like large cameras with special lenses. The people who entered them became the film. Perception of the site was the sole function of the Cincinnati Project.
