Share your walk with NYT

Bouncing off of William Helmreich’s famous walk through NYC and our family migration map activity, here’s something that combines walking, maps, and NYC! This isn’t informative, but I thought it was an interesting thing for the New York Times to offer.

Pick a location and share your story, and you can one of millions of New Yorkers who have something personal to say in a seemingly impersonal urban environment. I’m curious to see what they’ll do with all the stories–maybe choose the most unexpected ones and create a gallery and compilation of stories that relate to a certain theme–which sounds like what our web project will be! Stay tuned and look out for the results of this story-sharing.
