Better Know Your District: Intro

So I've pulled some preliminary information about our district from this wonderful site called Gotham Gazette. From it, you can find just about any political information you need on New York Government. We'd like to start educating you about the district info. As Landon Dais' campaign is ramped up, we'd also like you to ramp up you knowledge about your neighborhood/district. So this week, we're covering introductory information.

Neighborhoods:
- Morningside Heights,
- Central Harlem
- Riverside Park


Here's a map, they've cut the district up in a weird way:
