Financial District

geo. loc.
The southernmost neighborhood of the borough of Manhattan. Coterminous with the New Amsterdam settlement of the late 17th century, the Financial District roughly encompasses the area south of City Hall Park, excluding Battery Park and Battery Park City. So called because it is home to some of the largest financial institutions in the world, including the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Federal Reserve.
In the years since 9/11, in light of its historic scenary, high-rises views, and proximity to Soho, Tribeca, Chinatown and DUMBO, the Financial District has become a sought-after real estate investment for the young and upwardly mobile of New York City.

Cloud District

/kloud/ /distrikt/ (noun)

Skyrim's favorite bards. An indie rock band from outer space. The members of Cloud District are based in New York and may be found touring at/or below the legal speed limit in a Big Red Van, stopping occasionally to yell about their feelings, death, and Magic The Gathering. They startle easy so approach with care, but they are friendly creatures who often have free earplugs in their merchbox for those with ear-holes in need.
Person 1: "Do you get out to the Cloud District shows very often?"
Person 2: "Huh, you sound like this guy Nazeem I know, he told me about that band and now they're my favorite!"

distalk

a condition in which two talkative women meet by chance and try to continue talking at the same time, often trying to outdo the other without trying to listen to what the other is talking about, thus resulting in a babel that is incomprehensible to the other. May also be used of upwards of two garrulous women but the end result will be the same- just gibberish
When two or more talkative women meet, there will be no talk, just distalk.
