Get the Younger Sibling Privilege mug.a city so big the north and south are connected by a major highway. once a beautiful place now turned ghetto, both north and south. coyle pl, intervale pl, mclean ave, and caryle ave are all now hard. some of the north is still at its height, but it wont last very long, schools ARE laying off teachers and the board of ed is missing 600k. As someone once sed, take out staten island and make yonkers the 5th bourough of nyc, seeing as how it's about 10 minutes to manhattan (no traffic). Its still hot to hang out there because it is so commercialized.
