On Tuesday, May 17th, LANDMARK WEST! ventured where no Upper West Side preservation organization has ever gone before … into the realm of live Tweeting!
 |
| Via iPad, the live Tweeting begins! |
The reason? To share up-to-the-minute musings and news as we came together with Friends of Roosevelt Park to announce the kick-off of Landmark Feast. Coming this fall to the Arthur Ross Terrace at the American Museum of Natural History, Landmark Feast will be a totally unprecedented dining experience, celebrating our unique neighborhood and support the efforts of to preserve everything that makes the Upper West Side so special!

Throughout the arrival of our special guests (Chefs Bill Telepan of Telepan Restaurant, John Fraser of Dovetail Restaurant, and Damian Sansonetti of Bar Boulud; Katy Oursler of Outstanding in the Field; and of course our Honorary Event Chair Ruth Reichl), on into welcoming remarks by LW’s own Kate Wood, and as our guests continued to make merry, LW’s Cristiana Peña kept the Twitter-verse updated via iPad.
Thanks to the newly minted #LandmarkFeast hashtag (that is, the quick way by which Twitter users can seek out and follow topics that interest them most), party attendees could share the revelry with their social media friends … or just talk to each other, as Cristiana and 67 Wine‘s Melissa Sutherland opted to do (see photo above)!
