A sign with the message 'State of the Map US, Almost There!' is placed in a patch of grass next to a brick sidewalk. The scene is bathed in sunlight, casting shadows from nearby trees and lampposts. In the background, a building with a sign labeled 'VCU' is visible, alongside some greenery and a quiet street.
