This one is a toughie. The site was substantially redesigned to center the user interface around neighbor messages. Once all bugs are addressed, the UI will be roughed out to account for this, but it obviously wouldn’t get to the level of EveryBlock without a lot of work. Also: build the site using responsive design. Here are relevant posts from the EveryBlock blog relating to this feature:
2010 May 3 Announcing the EveryBlock mobile site
2011 Mar 21 Redesign notes for existing users
2011 Mar 21 EveryBlock's first major redesign

Ability for one user to contact another user through the site. This may or may not be necessary. If there is deep integration with social media (login via Facebook or Twitter, for example), users can easily use these other services to make contact. Here’s the relevant posts from the EveryBlock blog relating to this feature:
2011 May 16 New feature: Neighbor e-mail
This is the heart of the difference between openblock and everyblock. The immense amount of work on this amounts to a series of design patterns for civil discussion around a place. EveryBlock Designer Sandor Weisz has led the development on this, aided in large part by a team of Community Managers led by Becca Martin. They deserve a lot of credit for thinking this through, and it is a large part of the legacy of EveryBlock.
In order for this bug report to be useful, it should probably be broken out into smaller chunks. Here is an attempt at describing all of them in one swag:
Ability for a user to create a news item. Include the ability to “mute”/ hide any post or user as well as the ability to see the users who are following an area to which you are posting. Includes the ability to attach a photo in a post and to share a post via Twitter or Facebook. Include the ability to make any post an “event”, with a time and place, and to publish it to the proper place in the Events section. Includes the ability to preview any post before publishing. Also includes the ability for any user to flag a post as great (“Thanks”) or not great (“Unneighborly”). Also include the ability to group posts into categories. Also allows any user to turn any post into an advertisement. Here are relevant posts from the EveryBlock blog relating to this feature:

Ability for user to draw a section of a map, see news in that area, and save that view to their homepage. I’m not sure, but I think this feature was deprecated at some point and may not have been part of the site upon closing. Relevant blog post:
Allow for users to receive badges for various site behaviors. Seems like integrating with the the Mozilla Open Badges infrastructure would be a good idea: http://openbadges.org/en-US/. Here’s the relevant post from the EveryBlock blog relating to this feature:
2012 Oct 2 Introducing new EveryBlock badges.
These are features that are either not a part of the core code or features that were deprecated/ unsupported later.

Ability to integrate with user’s contact list to invite others. I think they used an established service for this. I think there are add-ons that query a user’s email account, imports email addresses, and allows the user to create and send an invite email. Here’s the relevant post from the EveryBlock blog relating to this feature:
2011 Apr 27 New feature: Invite more neighbors
