East Beach Launches myeastbeach Community Network with Neighborware®

Norfolk, VA (August 30, 2005) - East Beach, an innovative public-private initiative between the City of Norfolk, the Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority, and the East Beach Company, has introduced MyEastBeach, another element of its' advanced technology plan. With its commitment to integrating today's technology with a traditional neighborhood development philosophy, East Beach is not only garnering significant community attention, it is achieving record breaking home sales.

MyEastBeach is a private, password-protected community network powered by elliptIQ's Neighborware web application. The pedestrian scale, tree lined residential streets and coastal public spaces of East Beach, along with restaurants and shops, will create a strong physical sense of place.

"Technology plays an important role in East Beach. It is a very unique neighborhood, and we continually strive to provide residents with amenities and services that are on the leading edge," says Bart Frye, managing partner of East Beach LLC. "Neighborware provides residents the ability to communicate with each other with user friendly state of the art intranet connectivity, which helps strengthen the interpersonal bonds which are a hallmark of great neighborhoods."
