While we have not published a general citywide edition since 2000, we had a good reason – there are too many sites to include on a single sheet of paper! We chose Energy as the first theme to chart in 2006 – and you’ll find a treasure-trove of sites on the Powerful Green Map.
In mid-2008, a new online interactive OpenGreenMap edition will feature NYC’s sites! Debuting a decade after our original online edition of the Green Apple Map, it will provide a forum for open submissions, commentary and green ratings, so everyone can help make this map a current resource for everyday sustainability, citywide and far beyond!
Since our first edition, the Green Apple Map has provided an exciting overview of the progress NYC is making toward sustainability. 1992's original edition had 143 sites, and used a lettered code for nine categories of sites. Eight years later, the progress was clearly visible as our fourth edition had over a thousand sites, all of which were shown with Green Map System's award-winning global Icons.

After it is downloaded, you can open the PDF with Adobe Acrobat Reader. Print out each page (in color or black & white) on standard letter-size or A4 paper. Trim off the overlap and join the sheets together.
Then: Connect the north and south sides and use as a wall map. Or put the sides back-to-back and fold the maps. Carry it around as you explore New York's amazing environment. You can also leave each map in separate sheets for portability, or refer to it in its digital format. Either way, it is a very useful resource!
You are welcome to make copies of this copyrighted map for your class or group. Though it has not been updated, much of the information is still current. It's a good idea to call the site or check on their website before making a special trip.
And, if you want to send us site suggestions for the next edition, you plan to add them to the forthcoming OpenGreenMap.
