Observation In New York City

New York City’s old slum neighbourhood, the Five Points, was notoriously known for its vice and crimes. The first organized crime group in New York City was the Forty Thieves which was led by Edward Coleman, started in 1825, in the back of a grocery store. The Dead Rabbits were an Irish gang in the Five Points area, and are most known for the riot they caused in 1857. The Eastman Gang were a Jewish group in the Five Points area, which began in the late nineteenth century, and were the rival of the Five Points Gang. The Five Points Gang was another group, started by Paul Kelly and included future famous mobsters. In Five Points, where most of New York City’s crime started, it also started some of history’s most notorious gangs, and mobsters.

Gentrification is a major reason for the increase in rent prices throughout New York City. Harlem rent prices have gone up over the past years because of new condominiums and businesses that are being built in neighborhoods. The displacement of residents leads to an increase of people becoming homeless in the city. According to the author, Ivan Pereira, “Harlem saw a 9.4 % average rent price increase during that same period from $2,191 last year to $ 2,397 in January” (Pereira 1). The change causes longtime residents to move out because of a variety of factors including unaffordability, pressure from property owners, diminishing or lack of stores that cater to them and many more. The more condominiums and business’s being built makes living

Away is a documentary about the surfing subculture in New York City that is shown through three female surfers at Rockaway Beach.

Donald Trump speaks among a crowd of hundreds: “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” This is how a portion of American citizens perceive immigrants, and as the 2016 Presidential election gets closer the word “immigration” gets treated more delicately as if it were a new phenomenon. However, immigration is no new or delicate subject for New York City. In fact, residents (like in Queens) find it odd if a New Yorker isn’t of hybrid generation (Eichenbaum, Tour). The history of New York City has been painted by the millions and millions of immigrants that have touched its land. It’s a cycle: one group of immigrants come, stay, and leave while another new group of immigrants settle down. This continuous sequence is what makes New York City such an innovative city when it comes to immigrants.

Every time I hear this song it makes me long to leave all of my responsibilities and head off to the city of dreams. A trip to New York has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I have always wanted to visit the place of tall buildings, history, and where culture is intertwined with its people. I have wanted to live the fast pace life of a New Yorker, where I could stand outside and see, smell, and taste all of the experiences that this city has to offer. I have been building and building this ideal image in my mind for so long. If I ever get to New York, will I be disappointed by the city that never sleeps? The city that is a part of almost every movie I watch. Can New York live up to the expectations I have

I saw their shoulders were curved over and their hands were straining which all the visuals cues were in place telling me they were working.

The third problem you need to address is hygiene in New York City. New York city is the main hub of the country but the cleanliness of its streets is not up to the mark. On the garbage day, Broadway will smell badly as the garbage bags are arranged on the platforms. This is the genesis of many diseases. My friend had suffered a hygiene related disease and it resulted in reducing the mind and body coordination. If these kinds of diseases continue to spread, there would be thousands of diseases like this in the next few years. To avoid this, the city should be clean by clearing the garbage as soon as possible. Every street should be assigned a specific timeframe between ten to twenty minutes for the garbage truck to pick up the garbage bags.

Hermes smiled. The city of New York was marvelous. It was the place all travelers yearned for, so naturally it was his home. He sat down in his chair and sighed, “another day of buying stocks, filling out forms, and making calls. I hate mortals.” He went to work, grumbling about secretaries and Mondays, when his intercom buzzed, “Mr.Hermes, a man is here to see you. He claims to be a relative.”
