On the Grid City Guides

Recommended by Leslie

this site was my muse, my obsession, my north star for my formative years in my early 20s. created by a design agency in brooklyn, it connected a network of city guides all curated by local creatives. they stopped updating the site in 2020, and many of the wonderful recommendations have been victim of the pandemic, of time, and are no longer with us. but this site is still a corner of the internet that i love dearly.

i'm tempted to gather some friends and try to bring it back.

better than google maps

Do it do it while the idea is fresh! 💛 Happy to donate $ (and I'm sure others are too). I used Foursquare for the same purpose, whose creative community, alas, melted away.

Appreciate the encouragement! I am inspired to come up with a pitch now:)
