place. Bustling metropolis brimming with night life and dreamy-eyed folk chasing both the promise that is America and a sea of yellow cabs. Unlimited opportunity but limited seating. Concrete spires surrounding halal food carts beside world-class museums. Pigeons. So many pigeons. Many with feathers.

Wow. That hurricane Sandy really messed this place up.

No. This is how it always looks.

Hey! How about those New York Knickerbockers!

Many see New York as the only city in the world. This is not true. But there is no doubt that it is a fantastic city. I grew up in a suburb north of New York City called Westchester, and taking the train to the city is the coolest feeling, seeing the ugliness of Harlem, or the beauty of 42nd street. It's really fantastic. And it's the home of Broadway. Broadway kicks ass.
Avenue Q and Assassins are the best shows in New York right now.

1) the capital of the world
2) the only real city in the usa
3) home to 8 million diverse people (and another 14 million in the immediate suburbs)

Most cosmopolitan city in America. Best queer scene, most exciting nightlife, and friendliest people.
In other words: New York is da bomb
L.A. just bombs.

The best city in the country, and one of the only ones that isn't 99 % suburban shit (LA, Atlanta, Houston)

The greatest city and state in the world. There's just nothing like it! I grew up Upstate (Copiague) and love NY!
I think NY is the greatest place ever.
