The mission of cultureNOW is to promote civic awareness of and
interest in our culturally rich environment of New York City. The free
downtownNOW Map grew out of the work of New York/New Visions (NYNV)
Design Coalition for the Rebuilding of Lower Manhattan, a volunteer
effort by professional design organizations in response to the tragic
events of September 11th. The map was an effort to demonstrate the
rich cultural resources of downtown that had remained after 9/11. It
was first printed in January, 2002 with subsequent updated editions in
June, 2002, September, 2002, September, 2003, and now our fifth
edition, finished in October, 2006. These maps together have provided
cultural snapshots of downtown as it recovers.
CultureNOW is a non-profit organization.
