Want to be the first on the scene? Use Gothamist Maps to get a snapshot of police, fire & rescue activity around the 5 boroughs (e.g. “Plane Crash into Building, East 72nd St & 1st Ave”). Then race over there to get the story. Are you witnessing something as it unfolds? If so, you can also contribute to Gothamist’s map.
