Yes, there is a bit less city these days: Crossroads Plaza has disappeared, the Key Bank building on Main has imploded, and the ZCMI Center block is being pulled apart one steel beam at a time. But there's still plenty of downtown left for our 15th annual Itty Bitty Salt Lake City contest.

As usual, we're providing a set of tiny clues that represent fragments of downtown architecture, signs, statues and icons. All you have to do is identify them.

You'll find them in the area bordered by South Temple and 400 South, 300 East and 200 West.

This year the Deseret Morning News is partnering with The Temporary Museum of Permanent Change, a museum without walls whose motto is "Always changing. Always open. See for yourself." The museum — founded earlier this year by sculptor and former Salt Lake City planning director Stephen Goldsmith, photographer John Schaefer and graphic artist Gilberto Schaefer — is planning activities and displays designed to encourage Utahns to keep coming downtown during the four years it will take to build City Creek Center.
