NEW YORK CITY!
When you think "New York City" what comes to mind?
Your reply should be one word or a phrase.
You need never have been there (oh, but what a pity!), you still have an image come to mind. Don't you?
Tell us. Tell us what NYC brings to mind.

Message: The farthest East I've ever been is Cannonsburg, PA, if you can believe it. :( I would love to see NY city before I die. It's just beautiful and I love to see shows, so Broadway would be my first stop. We should plan a Board-Meet there someday. :)

Warm caring people
Never being bored because NYC has the best of everything.
The best and easiest city to go walking in. So much to look at.
Never feeling lost where ever you go because you're from the BIG city and know how to get around in it.
Best high schools, universities, entertainment, churches, shopping, sports teams, Central Park is a nature lovers dream come true, best food of all nationalities, a melting pot of all races and nationalities.
Don't believe the bad rep that people in NYC get from outsiders. New Yorkers on a whole are some of the nicest helpful people you'll ever meet. Except for Donald Trump. He's ruining the city with his grotesque high rise apartment buildings that block the older buildings view of the Hudson River.

I'm so lucky because I drive to a train station 15 minutes away and I'm a 40 minute train ride from Penn Station. We go to the city fairly often. Can't wait to go back.

CENTRAL PARK - grass and trees. LOL
would love to have seen more..
I was there only for ONE day and one night. Wanted to go to Broadway but couldn't afford to. Outrages prices. If they want to keep the Arts going, why in the world don't they make it affordable???

I guess I'm the opposite side of the coin. I don't like cities so it's not just New York. I hated L.A. too and I don't like D.C., Chicago, Orlando, Atlanta, Jacksonville either. I'll take a route around any major city anytime. The picture above is pretty though.

When I think of New York, I think of HUGE. From the pictures I have seen, it is a gigantic city, especially compared to my little town that has an uptown all on Main street which is 3 blocks long. For many years there were only three traffic lights, but then they added a fourth. Karen and I would love to visit New York some day.
