Thesis Statement: Tourist attractions throughout New York State have been overlooked, lost, and forgotten over the years. The utilization of digital placemaking systems in existing public spaces can

influence tourism to these overlooked places. By examining existing digital placemaking solutions, tourists’ motivators, and the current developments in design systems, I can create a system of digital placemaking that encourages tourism.
