Chattanooga Is Home

Today the fine minds at Coptix launched the redesigned St-elmo.org. This announcement is near and dear to me because it is the neighborhood that I currently live in and enjoy everyday.

An email to the neighborhood list from Coptix President, Jeffrey Cross, indicates that the main reason for the redesign is the playground project here in St. Elmo. The site is where you can go an make donations via paypal to help with the final costs of the playground or sign up to volunteer for the weekend project.

The new St. Elmo website gives a wealth of information- the history of the neighborhood, local merchants and artists, and information on the neighborhood association. I appreciate that the site also has external links of interest- our flickr group, craigslist, and the driving tour.

Jeff’s email also mentioned contacting them to let them know of information that isn’t on the site. I know we have more artists in the neighborhood than Infradig, so I hope a lot of them get added to the site soon. Also, our email list is constantly sending emails recommending people for handymen, HVAC, mechanics, and more. Soon that information should be consolidated on the website, which will be a helpful resource to many in the neighborhood.

This website is one that other neighborhoods should look to as an excellent example of a neighborhood website. I’m excited to add it to my blogroll and applaud Coptix for a job well done.
