No City Comes Close to New York

Metropolitan Museum of Art

"There’s something mesmerizing about New York that has me returning every time. The energy, sights, rhythm — it all reminds me why I study and revere cities. Plus with so many restaurants and cultural spaces, no city comes close to New York."

Arbiter

Tiffany Window


"New York is the arbiter. What New York accepts is accepted. What New York dislikes is disliked. If New York has put its seal of approval on a book, or a play, or a painting, that book, that play, that painting  is accepted. If New York has put its approval upon a musician, or an actor, or a preacher, he is accepted by the rest of the continent."

"New York is truly the cultural center of the world. There is simply no other place like it. There is more of everything in New York."
