I am happy to announce the launch of another great NYC website: StreetsBlog.
A project of the NYC Streets Renaissance Campaign and edited by NYC transportation/planning blogger Aaron Naparstek, this site will take a critical look at transportation issues in our area. I’ve been a fan of Aaron’s writing for some time, so it was a big honor for me to build his new home.

(The site is running WordPress, and the design is based on nycsr.org, which was originally designed by Andrew Fischler, Jr. who I’ve never met but whose design I like a lot.)

Most notably, it has been chosen as a featured case study at CubeCart.com (one of two, randomly highlighted on the homepage). Cube Cart is the e-commerce package we used, chosen mainly because it’s the only php-based e-commerce site that uses XHTML and CSS. Thanks, Alistair, for the shout out.

Every June, 23 blocks of 5th Avenue (between 82nd & 105th Streets) are closed for a giant block party – pretty awesome. All the museums along the mile open to the public, and there are all sorts of arts & music events along the way (and by the way, I re-did their website for them last year).

In fact, just the day after opening, GRDN got their first web order. Way to go!

Stay tuned…

It’s nothing fancy, but I’m excited because I’ve always wanted a black-on-black site (and haven’t had the nerve to do it until now).  I’ll be adding more as I have time over the next few weeks.
