This post is about a year or two overdue but I’m pleased to announce that Streetsblog New York City is now tweeting. For breaking local livable streets news, short-form commentary, and bits and pieces that might not appear on the blog, follow @StreetsblogNYC.

We’ll give followers the jump on lots of stories before they make it onto the blog. Here’s the advance report on last night’s Manhattan CB 6 meeting, ahead of Noah’s post coming up later today.
