Literary Map of the Village

village literary map

Though I’m sure it must be an incredibly difficult job for only the top in the field, I can’t shake the impression that the people who work for the New York Public Library, must sit around coming up with truly nerdy things to do and then execute them. Take this as evidence. It’s a very thoroughly researched Google map of significant literary spots in the west village. It must have taken hours to put together.

I hope they do this on the clock. It’s marvelous to think that someone gets paid to be this nerdy.
