Povo is a wiki-based, collaborative tool that lets everyone in the New York community come together to create, evolve, and maintain the ultimate urban guide for New York and its neighborhoods.
Povo is like a local Wikipedia -- not only can you find out about stuff in your neighborhood like restaurants serving your favorite cuisine, where to park your car, the best pub to watch the Yankees or Mets play, or where to grab a bite to eat late at night, but you can add all of this to the site and edit existing information.
Povo is a people site; for you, by you, and about your neighborhood or community. We've seeded the site with businesses, parks, and other information to get things started, but the rest is up to you - the more you contribute, the more useful the site will be. Add or edit any of the text on the site, including what you're reading right now. Just click the edit button on this page to get started, or do a search for something you're interested in to get an idea of how the site works.
Thank you for your contribution. You've taken a huge step to making Povo the "word on the street,"
and we appreciate it very much. Because of the complexity of the "wiki text" and code that can be used
on Povo, in order to edit this section in the future you must click the "edit" button to the right of the section
heading (or for the whole page).
Graffiti is a place for quick notes. Know the hours of a business but not sure where to put it? Did something just happen at this place? Leave some graffiti.
Sometimes street view does not point exactly to the right place. You may need to "drive around" a bit.
If you find a better view, click here to save it for everybody else.
