New York City and Google Team Up for New Information Center

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg guest blogged on the Official Google Blog today to announce a new website and Information Center. The effort is a partnership between NYC and Google. The new site is nycgo.com.

The site uses Google Maps and the physical location can be found at 810 Seventh Avenue, between 52nd and 53rd Streets. The center features interactive map tables powered by the Google Maps API for Flash. There's also a video wall that uses Google Earth to display a 3D layout of the city.
