DNAinfo have released an interactive tool to allow readers to draw outlines of their ill-defined NYC neighborhoods, to crowdsource – and compare & contrast – where readers think their neighborhood boundaries lie (and divide). Go here to outline your ‘hood.

Having lived on 42nd Street, in Long Island City, I appear to be the only one who drew that street as a boundary line; most assume the line is further west, but that line is in the 11101 zip code for LIC. Also my outline appears to be the only one that fully envelopes Socrates Sculpture Park, a revered Long Island City institution.

Just sayin’.
