Magic

Crosby St.

"New York is magic. People who write or speak of it have a strong sense of the place, whether or not they have been. Usually, either Manhattan is exhilarating or terrifying, scintillating or soul-killing. Figuratively larger than a city or even an island, it possesses mythic qualities."
Heidi R. Moore, The Aesthetics of Place and the Comedy of Discomfort
