Hats off to this web site, for granting accessibility and manageability to the biggest city in the country. While its government might be the most intimidating by virtue of size, the web site brings government closer to home with a variety of notable features. Much like the City itself, the site offers so many attractions it’s hard to know where to start. On the home page, the scrolling “NYC Right Now” headlines keep interested parties abreast of current news, notices, and events, while the My Neighborhood tool (a searchable database) provides specific local information. From subway maps to live traffic cameras, restaurant inspection reports, permit requests and apartment rental guidelines, the site is full of information and interactive tools. At the same time, the site boasts a classy, sophisticated style befitting its big city image.
