After the Prairie

After the Prairie Podcast

Overview

A website for a podcast about Chicago architecture, art, and  history. Initially the website will showcase podcast episodes but will need to expand to provide walking tour information. 

Hompage

The homepage showcases episodes in a module card format.

The broadcast date, episode number, download, and transcript are accessible from the module card. If the episode theme focuses on a physical building, a map trigger is included.

Episode pages

There is a dedicated page for each episode which includes a gallery of photos and/or videos, references, and additional notes.

The ability to subscribe to the podcast, view the transcript, and download and share the episode are provided. Quick inks are provided  to items like the gallery, episode references, and additional notes. Listeners can map building locations and the link to walking tour information.

Walking tours

The website lists walking tours featuring architectural buildings, artworks, and historic sites mentioned the podcasts. A keyword search allows users to match podcasts episodes, art, history, or building names with available tours. The image below has returned two tours that feature the Marquette Building.

Tour information is clearly stated. Links to the tour map and building location are provided.

Conclusion

This site is still a work in progress, as are the podcasts.
