What it does

NYC Bike Map is a unified, interactive bike map for NYC that combines data from NYC OpenData, Citi Bike and other sources. It currently displays the NYC Bike network, bike rack locations, bike shelter locations and Citi Bike dock locations.

NYC Online Bike Map with NYC Bike Lanes, Greenways, Openstreets, Citi Bike, Protected Bike Paths and More. Updated May 2022.

NYC Bike Map is a free interactive bike network map for New York City that combines information from NYC OpenData, Citi Bike and other sources. It currently displays the NYC Bike lane network, bike racks, bike shelters, Citi Bike docks, Oonee Pods and Bike tips + hazards. NYC Bike Map was created and is under development by Todd Lee-Millstein . It is also open-source so anybody is able to contribute to it if they want. Currently, there is no good interactive bike map for NYC. DOT only provides a PDF version of the NYC bike network which lacks a lot of functionality. Google Maps also has an interactive version of the bike map but it doesn't provide the same depth of information that NYC Bike…from nycbikemap.nyc

    isometric.nyc – giant isometric pixel art map of NYCJan 2026 · cannoneyed.com · ▲1,325

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc

    Each moving arrow represents one real bike ride out of 291 million, and if you've ever taken a Citi Bike before, you are included in this massive visualization! You can search for your ride using Cmd + K and your Citi Bike receipt, which should give you the time of your ride and start/end station. Everything is open source: https://github.com/freemanjiang/bikemap Some technical details: - No backend!

    Hey HN, jvaclavik here from OpenClimbing team! We are thrilled to release version 2.0 of our fully opensource/opendata climbing guide. Based on OpenStreetMap for map-data and Wikimedia Commons for images, we created a (hopefully) user-friendly app which completely uses these open databases, thus contributing data back to commons. We designed a simple and powerful notation for drawing climbing routes directly over the Wikimedia pictures: - https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wikimedia_commons:pa...

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
