Heh as a long time commuter from lower Manhattan to Queens, I always considered 59th street the top of Manhattan. Everything above it doesn't matter (to me)

- rmxt 11y agoFor all of the people that I've come across that have said this (or something similar)...I've not once come across a satisfying reason as to why people take pride in their limited geographic or experiential knowledge of NYC and all/more of its neighborhoods. Sure, all of your needs might be met in X part of the city; but forgoing Y part of the city is missing out on so much more.
