Most Wicked City

Criminal Courts Building

"I asked myself a question. 'Brother Hall,' I said to myself, 'which is the most wicked city, pluperfect and parboiled, you've ever been in?' Without a bit of hesitation the answer came forth, 'New York, N.Y.' Consequently, I got on a train and came here and took root."
Joseph Mitchell, Up in the Old Hotel
