apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

as an nyc-er, i have the brooklyn poster and i love it. i'm thinking of getting manhattan now that it's available. they're really good looking and good quality. and i got it super fast.

The SF one was on my christmas list, and they had stock a couple days ago, but a couple blogs mentioned it and now it's gone before my "source" (aka girlfriend) could buy it online :(.

I live in Brooklyn, but I have the Chicago one (spent 5 great years there), it's a good looking poster, but the diy nerd in me really wishes that it were screenprinted.

Hey, Duboce Triangle is missing! (I used to live there)

Why did they rename the "Tenderloin" as "Downtown"?

The SF poster is Sold Out.

If it doesn't say "Tenderloin," it's not art.

Thanks for posting this! I'm a California girl and my fiancee is a Boston boy. I've just ordered the Boston one for him and it will go perfectly in our bedroom. He'll love it! Maybe we'll get the SF one when it's available so we can have a matching set.

Since when did Clinton and Hells Kitchen become separate neighborhoods? I know that real-tards have been trying to bring the Chelsea brand further and further uptown- way up into the 30's. "Chelsea Heights," anyone? And I know that they have been trying to re-name HK as "Clinton." But I didn't think HK became some kind of DMZ between Chelsea and Clinton. And if they are going to cleave Alphabet City away from the East Village, then they have to cleave NoLIta away from Chinatown and SoHo. And they are being way too generous with Little Italy. Today it's nothing more than two blocks of Mulberry St...

I'm with wende.
I was going to buy this, but then I noticed there was no Tenderloin. No TL, no deal.

at first I loved this idea, as a native SFer recently transplanted to LA...but upon further inspection:
no japantown?
no panhandle?
no embarcadero?
and, agreed, no tenderloin?

no thanks, I'll make my own.

I'm glad I read all the posting!

No TL, no Jtown, no panhandle, no embarcadero...
no thank you.

Was this SF map made by a local? I think not. Many neighborhoods just vaporized and don't appear.

No Tenderloin is a major screw up.
But as mentioned, many others missing too.

Where is Mt. Davidson/Miraloma Park? Cole Valley? Japantown?

Good idea. Sh*tty execution.

No dogpatch, either.

I lived in the Lower Haight for years, and that's missing, too. I'd take Duboce triangle as a consolation prize, but nope - it's missing too!!!

And yeah - where is the tenderloin????

Phooey!

The Boston one has errors too. Allston and Brighton are reversed, and the Jamaica Plain/Roxbury/Mattapan borders are incorrect. Boston is a city with official neighborhood designations (i.e., you can check with city hall and find the proper names and exact borders), so this one is blatantly incorrect, as opposed to some cities where you can kiiind of understand borders shifting or neighborhoods being rebranded.

(Not that that doesn't happen in Boston with the sub-neighborhoods, but this map only shows official neighborhoods. No leeway.)
