2. A brilliant film by Woody Allen.
3. The center of the universe, and the best pizza on Earth
4. A tasty alcoholic beverage.
1. I am from Manhattan. Worship me from afar.
2. I just saw 'Manhattan'. The soundtrack is beautiful.
3. Manhattan pizza kicks the rest in the nuts.

Manhattan Valley

An area of Manhattan in the Upper West Side bordering Harlem. From Central Park West to Columbus Avenue the architecture is beautiful, past Columbus the scene grows a bit grittier. Was known for crack deals until the late 90s when the area was cleaned up. For the most part, very safe, and much more diverse and interesting than any area in Midtown and below. The best place to live, where you can truly be in Manhattan, yet away from all the snobs and Chelsea boys, the rich and The New School students, and live the "Real life" in what Hell's Kitchen USED to be in the 70's-80's.
Manhattan Valley is one of the few chill yet safe neighborhoods left in Manhattan.

manhattan beach

Absurdly wealthy area in the Los Angeles South Bay. Neighbors to Hermosa and Redondo Beach. Home to many sports stars and entertainment big wigs usually found on their oceanfront mansions that line "the strand", a pedestrian path running adjacent to the beach. Only place in the world where "starter homes" nearly 3 miles from the ocean routinely fetch in excess of 1.8 million dollars.
Manhattan beach is so loaded, dude! I wish I lived there....

Dr. Manhattan

"A nickname for a large penis."

This relates to the enormous, digital blue dong seen on Dr. Manhattan in the movie, "Watchmen."

manhattan beach

A very wealthy town in the South Bay of Los Angeles. Bordered by both Hermosa & Redondo Beaches, Manhattan is known for its beautiful homes, luxury cars, and expensive boutiques. Many Los Angeles businessmen and entertainment bigwigs keep homes here. The three "districts" of the city are as follows:
Sand Section - Noted by its close proximity to the ocean, this neighborhood is primarily identified with the paved concrete path running parallel to the beach called "the Strand". Oceanfront homes here are generally priced from 8-15 million dollars. More "reasonably" priced homes a short walk from the sand on one of the famous walk-streets are priced from 3-6 million. The Sand Section is extremely densely populated and parking is sparse, usually limited to residents, guests, and those willing to feed their life savings into a meter that will inevitably be broken.
Tree Section - The cheapest part of Manhattan Beach. Mainly single family homes with small yards on streets with ample vegetation. Parking is painless here. Some homes are a walkable distance from the beach, though not many. Most of MB's mortal families live here. That is, those with household incomes below $300k/year.
Hill Section - Ritziest part of town, most homes are gigantic with massive yards, pools, spas, and decks made of imported Brazilian wood. Many of the hilltop homes afford spectacular ocean views (these are the costliest), though none of the Hill Section's residents are very close to the beach. Prices range from 4-8 million, with new construction often fetching in excess of 10 million.
Manhattan Beach is LA's nicest suburb, by far!
