Summary Of Manhattan, The City Of New York, Manhattan

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.

Living in America is a fantasy for a lot of people, but living in New York City is something even better, and more magical than any fantasy.

New York City is made up of five boroughs, which include the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. Within these boroughs, there are high and low-income neighborhoods that contain either high or low status organizational structures or facilities. Each division has their own characteristics and top attractions, such as the Empire State building, Central Park, or Times Square. As New York City may be known for great food and fun attractions, New York faces infrastructure problems within each borough. New York City’s infrastructure funding is limited in lower income neighborhoods, where money needed to upkeep the city goes toward prime tourist’s areas or residents living in high status neighborhoods, such as The Upper East Side of Manhattan, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, and Lenox Hill, Manhattan. Moreover, abandoned buildings, poor sewage conditions, and rocky roads and streets are examples of low-income area infrastructure problems that may hinder neighborhood growth both structurally and economically. Harlem, East Brooklyn, and South Bronx are low-income parts of New York that lack new and refined facilities, roads, plumbing, and fundamental structures, which contribute to high crime and arrests.

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

There are two main reasons I have applied to NYU. The first is because New York City is my favorite place in the world. The first time I came to New York was with my mom. We had taken a bus from Vermont to Massachusetts and then into New York. The bus ride was long and uncomfortable, but I was as bouncy and ecstatic. When I stepped out of the Port Authority Bus Terminal and on to 8th Avenue, there was only one word that could accurately describe the feeling; home. Even though I was only able to be in the city for seventeen hours, every minute felt like a lifetime. My mom and I spent most of the day in the Theatre District, except for a quick trip uptown to the Hamilton Grange National Memorial. It was uptown that I figured out there was nowhere

Throughout the ages of civilization, mankind has evolved its environment and along with the changes to the environment it has affected us immensely. As skyscrapers are erected in the middle of Manhattan, it was with the sweat on a brow of mankind. Pollution of transporting necessary objects to create the obelisk and many factors contribute to the downfall of individuals.

There are many health hazards associated with urbanization, and this picture of New York City’s Five Points neighborhood illustrates many of those dangers. For example, in the foreground of the picture there is a pig on the street. Animals added to the waste accumulation problem in the city and its streets. There is a water pump that many people are using which displays a serious health hazard. The water was most likely from ground water that came from a polluted canal. Thirdly, the street in this image is very overcrowded. The high density of people contributed to the spread of infectious diseases. In addition, the sky appears to be gray and muggy, hinting at air pollution. This pollution caused nausea, which could have led to poor digestion

New York City is known as the birthplace or launching pad for countless musicians careers. In addition to launching scores of careers, New York serves as a pivotal location for several genres of music. Whether it was the birthplace or just a key city in a movement’s growth, New York’s boroughs and neighborhoods hold distinct legacies in these three genres expansion:

In the heart of New York City, the lives of Melvin Udall, Carol Connely, Simon Bishop, and Frank Sachs collided every day. However, when tragedy struck not only did they form mutual friendships, they helped each other become their best selves. While there were several interesting characters in this film, I chose to focus on the life of Simon Bishop (Brooks, 1997).

In metropolitan New York, it was a dull, old, and common day working on the second floor. A loud noise, alarming and spine chilling, shocking me out of my stiff, smooth, and comfortable chair. Smoke was rushing into my packed office, chasing me like we were in a race to survive. Everyone was struggling to breathe the dense, thick air full of debris, through their hardworking lungs. Frightened, I evacuated out of my room, towards the long, never ending staircase traumatized. While zooming down, the building was wobbling like a teeter totter and dancing around almost like a ballerina, and I was positive that the building was collapsing. Heavily breathing, I jumped out the window. Debris was filling the air like a giant pump trying to fill up

People call New York City, the city of dreams, and I agree with them. I've lived in Queens, New York for 11 years exactly. While I have lived there I have experienced the most exuberant time of my life. I empathically think that New York is the place to be when you are feeling lethargic and sluggish.

Placing as the capital of the world financial markets, theater and surrounding fashion, New York City has plenty to offer young people with high dreams. Post one's arrival the astonishingly tall buildings will be sure to catch one's eye! Moving into the jungle of vast buildings, the streets filled with cabs, limos, and cars going in each and every direction you can imagine, leaving behind the aroma of exhaust tracing through the air. Progressing towards the inner city of New York the smell of different restaurants will soon be introduced to one's nose straightaway. Down on the corner of each street be ready to approach a street vendor calling out your name! Heaps upon heaps of pedestrians will be flowing down the sidewalks, reminding one of a stream of diversity.

The documentary New York: The center of the World (1946-2003) talks about the one of the most monumental architectures that would change the life of many people around the world, from its grand opening in 1973 to its destruction in September of 2001. The documentary talks about the World Trade Center. The documentary begins as America itself began to rise in power through globalization in the decades following the war; the twin towers of the World Trade Center were and will always symbolize the center of economic systems that would come to direct much of the face of the planet.

How do you create a show about New York City? One that transforms the city’s concrete sidewalks into paths of beauty. A show that transforms the rain and dreariness of daily commutes, and of your boots pounding against pavements, into magic. No longer is it the known practical city, but a world of unending possibilities and allure, to the point you almost forget the serious trust issues the MTA has given you.
