Diversity and Complexity

Two Bridges

"New York is full of diversity and complexity, and it's very hard to analyze because of that. New York is a mind-set, and we're all arrogantly proud of what that represents."
Milton Glaser, The New York Times

Mood Supporter

Dumbo

"Another incredible quality of Manhattan is that it really supports whatever mood you're in. If you're on top of the world, on a honeymoon phase with a new boyfriend, just found a nice man with a great job, looked in the mirror and think you look great, New York is suddenly the best city in the world. It's just like a Frank Sinatra song, and similarly, if you're down-and-out, life has lost all meaning and, just never comes together, New York really supports that. You can feel safe in the weight of that."
Natasha Lyonne, Coveteur

Always Running

Williamsburg Bridge

"New York is known as a place where you're always running toward something, whether it be at a meeting, the subway station, or a particular goal — in New York, you're always ready for the next thing."
Silvana Reyes, Buzzfeed
