đź“Ť The stories are coming home.

We have launched a new public platform for the Neighborhood Stories Project—an interactive ArcGIS map where you can explore 50 stories from everyday, extraordinary New Yorkers.

These voices have always belonged to the community. Now, they’re back—online, public, and growing. More stories coming soon.

🗺️ Explore your neighborhood. Hear your neighbors.

Have your story permanently preserved in the NYC Archives!

Neighborhood Stories is a storytelling initiative by the NYC Department of Records, which aims to gather and permanently preserve the stories of New York City community members. This project aims to “put the community in the archive” by empowering local residents to provide their own rich historical narrative, and encouraging them to reflect on how the past connects to their lives, their families and their future.
