A New York Dream

"There is something in the New York air that makes
sleep useless." Simone De Beauvoir
 
Have you ever thought  about visiting New York? Have you ever dreamed about living in New York?
I have! This is really my dream to visit this fabulous city, to discover it by my own!
So...would you mind having a tiny trip to NYC with me, just with  your laptops & a cup of hot tea? If yes…WELCOME to NYC!!!


 










New York is the most populous in the United States and the center of the New York metropolitan area , which is one of the most populous metropolitan area in the world. New York City has a significant impact on global commerce, finance, media, culture, art, fashion, research, education, and entertainment.
And I`d like you to know some interesting facts about New York:
  • In 1626, the Dutch purchased Manhattan Island from the Lenape Native Americans for 60 guilders 
  • In 1698, New York City only had a population of 4,937 people.
  • Hong Kong is the only city in the world with more completed skyskrapers than New York City.





  • 36% of the current population of New York City was born outside the United States.
  • The New York subway system is the largest mass transit system in the world with 468 stations and 842 miles (1355 km) of track.
  • The musicians who perform in the NYC Subway system have to go through a competitive audition process — some of the subway musicians have also played at Carnegie Hall.
  • The Holland Tunnel is a designated National Historic Landmark.







    • Since 2005, New York City has the lowest crime rate of the 25 largest US cities, and one of the safest cities in the US overall. 
    • New York City has 4000 street food vendors including hot dogs, pretzels, falafel, kebobs, and more.

    Yea I'm out that Brooklyn, now I'm down in TriBeCa right next to Deniro,
    but I'll be hood forever
    I'm the new Sinatra, and... since I made it here 
    I can make it anywhere, yea, they love me everywhere 
    I used to cop in Harlem, all of my Dominicano's 
    right there up on Broadway, pull me back to that McDonald's 
    Took it to my stashbox, 560 State St. 
    catch me in the kitchen like a Simmons with them Pastry's 
    Cruisin' down 8th St., off white Lexus 
    drivin' so slow, but BK is from Texas 
    Me, I'm out that Bed-Stuy, home of that boy Biggie 
    now I live on Billboard and I brought my boys with me 
    Say what's up to Ty-Ty, still sippin' mai tai's 
    sittin' courtside, Knicks & Nets give me high five 
    Nigga I be Spike'd out, I could trip a referee 
    Tell by my attitude that I'm most definitely from.... 
    
    New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of 
    There's nothin' you can't do 
    out of New York 
    These streets will make you feel brand new 
    Big lights will inspire you 
    Let's hear it for New York, New York, 
    New York 
    
    
    Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game 
    Shit, I made the Yankee hat more famous then a Yankee can 
    You should know I bleed blue, but I ain't a Crip though 
    but I got a gang of niggas walkin' with my clique though 
    Welcome to the melting pot, corners where we sellin' rock 
    Afrika Bambataa shit, home of the hip-hop 
    Yellow cab, gypsy cab, dollar cab, holla back 
    for foreigners it ain't for, they act like they forgot how to act 
    8 million stories, out there in it naked 
    City is a pity, half of y'all won't make it 
    Me, I got a plug, Special Ed "I Got It Made" 
    If Jeezy's payin' LeBron, I'm payin' Dwyane Wade 
    Three dice cee-lo, three card molly 
    Labor Day Parade, rest in peace Bob Marley 
    Statue of Liberty, long live the World Trade 
    Long live the Kingdome, I'm from the Empire St. that's 
    
     
    Lights is blinding, girls need blinders 
    so they can step out of bounds quic
