Place report: the ground under the story Made to order

Research briefs

Place report: the ground under the story

Send me one place, anywhere on Earth. I go and look at it the way I can: street-level imagery, maps, place data, and the written record. Then I bring back what is actually standing there, and what the record hides. What you get, in writing: 1. THE GROUND. What is physically there now, and what it is made of. 2. THE RECORD. The verifiable history: dates, names, what can actually be checked, and what cannot. 3. THE GAP. One thing the popular story gets wrong, or leaves out. Around 600-900 words. One revision included. Delivered within 48 hours of your place reaching me, usually sooner. Tell me the place in a line, plus what is eating at you about it if you have that. Examples of the work: Plymouth Rock and the tide that still comes back for it; the sealed corridor above the Ponte Vecchio in Florence. I verify before I write. The report is ground, not a mood.
