A Fascinating Story about New York City
While considering spending a holiday or a weekend with the family in a beautiful city, New York City should be at the top of the list. A considerable number of people get puzzled by the tall buildings, well structured highways and the well light streets when they visit for the same time. When planning a tour to New York City, one might wonder how a human being could have possibly built such tall buildings. The virtue that New York City is one of the largest cities in the world makes a person think that it is a paradise. In most cases, it is highly likely that a person who has never been to New York City could easily get lost due to the size of the city. The expansiveness of the city has generated economic gains.

The Americans living in New York are passionate and warm. They smile a lot coupled with the fact that they are at ease to talk easily to strangers, sometimes sharing their own personal stories. In fact, when you meet a New Yorker for the first time and you initiate formal greetings, and the New Yorker smiles; just know that you have created a warm rapport with him or her. At the same time, when a foreigner meets an American in New York, he or she should be confident to look at him or her in the eyes, smile and shake hands. It can be universally agreed that the culture of the American people is rich because its influence has an impact on global nations. In other words, due to the widespread and immense influence of American movies and politics across the world, it can be ascertained that most of the ideals and norms are clearly understood around the world. More specifically, it can be potentially easy to understand how simple the American culture is even for a person who has never been immersed into another culture, whether he or she is an American, or belongs to another

New York City’s old slum neighbourhood, the Five Points, was notoriously known for its vice and crimes. The first organized crime group in New York City was the Forty Thieves which was led by Edward Coleman, started in 1825, in the back of a grocery store. The Dead Rabbits were an Irish gang in the Five Points area, and are most known for the riot they caused in 1857. The Eastman Gang were a Jewish group in the Five Points area, which began in the late nineteenth century, and were the rival of the Five Points Gang. The Five Points Gang was another group, started by Paul Kelly and included future famous mobsters. In Five Points, where most of New York City’s crime started, it also started some of history’s most notorious gangs, and mobsters.
Being here in the city for one afternoon or day wouldn’t allow to experience the new surroundings. Its important that the individual who comes to the Big Apple stays long enough to notice a difference in what they saw in their mid afternoon walk yesterday. One wonders ,” Hey, was that was always there?”, or “ Woah did they put that in overnight?”. There is no typical day in New York City. The weirdness we see becomes so normal that if something were to stay the same for so long it would get boring. “City Limits," by Colson Whitehead touches on the New Yorkers thoughts on the city, explaining the change we New Yorkers go
New York City is made up of five boroughs, which include the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. Within these boroughs, there are high and low-income neighborhoods that contain either high or low status organizational structures or facilities. Each division has their own characteristics and top attractions, such as the Empire State building, Central Park, or Times Square. As New York City may be known for great food and fun attractions, New York faces infrastructure problems within each borough. New York City’s infrastructure funding is limited in lower income neighborhoods, where money needed to upkeep the city goes toward prime tourist’s areas or residents living in high status neighborhoods, such as The Upper East Side of Manhattan, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, and Lenox Hill, Manhattan. Moreover, abandoned buildings, poor sewage conditions, and rocky roads and streets are examples of low-income area infrastructure problems that may hinder neighborhood growth both structurally and economically. Harlem, East Brooklyn, and South Bronx are low-income parts of New York that lack new and refined facilities, roads, plumbing, and fundamental structures, which contribute to high crime and arrests.
The whole setting of this book revolves around three of the boroughs in New York, Manhattan, the Bronx and Queens. The first borough that plays a very cohesive part in the book is the most densely populated borough found in New York which is Manhattan. Now, Manhattan plays a big role, mainly for one of the main rivaling characters, Hunter Alden III. He met his wife during the humongous incident of 9/11 where many people suffered and has chosen to build an extraordinarily large two story building for him, his son Tripp and his wife to live in at Manhattan to keep the parent’s memories when they first met. The house has very stony and rough walls throughout the outside of the house and has a huge black fence around all the land. When you enter
New York City is a very famous place all over the world. A lot of people think that it is the best place to live. However, some people have a different point of view. I think that New York City is a good place to live for two reasons.
New York City is one of most diverse city in the United States of America. New York City is not only known for it is fashion, but for art. In Changing Art: SoHo, Chelsea and the Dynamic Geography of Galleries by Harvey Molotch and Mark Treskon it talks about changes in galleries locations and art over time from New York 's SoHo and Chelsea districts. As well as the decrease of New York’s SoHo as a gallery district and the increase of nearby Chelsea.
New York City and its suburbs are world-renowned for many things. However, when it comes to bicycle integration with public transportation, New York City lies in the shadow of other cities such as Portland and San Francisco. In these cities, all public buses have bike racks, trains have bicycle storage, cyclists have access to secure parking at metro stations, and safe bikeways provide cyclists with a route to metro stations. All four of these characteristics are needed to foster a bicycle-friendly transit system. However, while New York City excels in certain areas of this criteria, it lacks bike racks on buses and secure bike parking at subway stations. These problems also persist in New York City’s suburbs; however, the suburbs fall even farther behind the city due to their lack of safe bikeways.
Ever since I can remember I have had a fascination with New York City, partly because the way that the movies have portrayed it as being almost magical and full of endless possibilities way but mostly because I love large cities. Although I live near Glasgow which could be considered to be a large city I don’t think it has the same allure as NYC. The architecture is so different and I think that what makes New York so special. Endless rows of skyscrapers that send shadows flowing
In metropolitan New York, it was a dull, old, and common day working on the second floor. A loud noise, alarming and spine chilling, shocking me out of my stiff, smooth, and comfortable chair. Smoke was rushing into my packed office, chasing me like we were in a race to survive. Everyone was struggling to breathe the dense, thick air full of debris, through their hardworking lungs. Frightened, I evacuated out of my room, towards the long, never ending staircase traumatized. While zooming down, the building was wobbling like a teeter totter and dancing around almost like a ballerina, and I was positive that the building was collapsing. Heavily breathing, I jumped out the window. Debris was filling the air like a giant pump trying to fill up
When you mention New York to anyone, they automatically think about Times Square. This beautiful place with skyscrapers, Central Park, and a unique transportation system. However, if you were to ask me what I think about New York; I believe the skyscrapers block the sun, Central park is just a regular park for dogs, and the subway trains rarely run consistently especially in the mornings. I have lived in New York for 18 years, and I have yet to understand what everyone likes about the “ Big Red Apple.”
As someone walks over the grates in the sidewalk, they can feel the wind rush up from the subway cars flying through the tunnels. While they continue walking down the street and looking at all the different people that they pass, they can smell the hotdogs being cooked in the food truck. In the distance, they hear a siren weaving through the congested narrow streets of this busy city. New York City is a one of a kind type of place. It is the only place in the world where so many different cultures and backgrounds are all in one place. Along with the multitudes of different types of people and cultures, New York City truly is the city that never sleeps. The city that never sleeps, New York City, is full sights, sounds, tastes, smells, and feels.
New York City is known as the birthplace or launching pad for countless musicians careers. In addition to launching scores of careers, New York serves as a pivotal location for several genres of music. Whether it was the birthplace or just a key city in a movement’s growth, New York’s boroughs and neighborhoods hold distinct legacies in these three genres expansion:
Living in America is a fantasy for a lot of people, but living in New York City is something even better, and more magical than any fantasy.
