New york, new york ( Frank Sinatra)

Start spreading the news, Im leaving today
I want to be a part of it – new york, new york
These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it – new york, new york

I wanna wake up in a city, that doesnt sleep
And find Im king of the hill – top of the heap

These little town blues, are melting away
Ill make a brand new start of it – in old new york
If I can make it there, Ill make it anywhere
Its up to you – new york, new york

New york, new york
I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps
And find Im a number one top of the list, king of the hill
A number one

These little town blues, are melting away
Im gonna make a brand new start of it – in old new york
And if I can make it there, Im gonna make it anywhere

It up to you – new york new york

New york

Are You Like….?

New York is where i be
New York you made me
New York is finally free
New York is the other side of me
New York is where i want to be
New York is a charity
New York is courage
New York is protection
New York is pain
New York is distruction
New York provides
New York serves
New York is the best place on EARTH!

I LOVE NEW YORK AND ALWAYS WILL

Manhattan is the most famous borough. It is basically a small island (about 160 city blocks long and 8 blocks wide) and it is composed of (among other things) Midtown, "The Village", "Hells Kitchen", Downtown, "wall street" (or "The business district") Uptown, The Eastside, The WestSide, Harlem, Alphabet city, Little Italy …. The list goes on as far as sections of Manhattan. There are also some famous parks most notably central park (fairly good size maybe 40 blocks by 4 blocks) , union square, washington square.

The inhabitants are pretty varied, NYC is a very cosmopolitan city. The environment is typical of NorthEast US which means it is hot in summer, cold in winter with a decent amount of snow, summer and spring are fairly moderate. The extreme hots and extreme colds usually only stick around about 2 months each.

Auto Traffic getting in and out of Manhattan is toughest since it is an Island. Once you are in manhattan thought traffic isn't too terribly bad (unless it is rush hour or if there is an event or parade or something!). Your best bet, though is public transportation.

There are many activities: Broadway is one of the great places in the world to see live plays. There is almost always a parade going on. There are lots of night clubs and places to go things to do. There are lots of restaraunts.
