Project Neon by Kirsten Hively is a project to document the best of New York’s neon signs before they’re replaced with LED screens. She is taking photographs of the signs, plotting them on a Google Map and updating a blog regularly with stories about the places she goes and the people running the businesses that still use them.
Kirsten is also crowdsourcing the money to build an iPhone app that will allow people to get out and explore the city’s neon themselves.
You can read more on the Project Neon blog.
