First things first, I had to figure out how to organize the people involved in planning this party.  What did I end up deciding to use?  NYCStreets of course! NYCStreets is a website produced by The Open Planning Project that helps New York City residents organize themselves.  I created a project called TOPP Block Party.  The project provides me with wiki-pages and mailing lists.  I am going to use the wiki page to aggregate information that we learn about the block party and use the mailing lists to communicate with all the people involved in planning it.  I am extremely excited to use this website for a community project, because this was the intention for its creation.
