Big Heart

Third Avenue

"My hometown New York also has a big heart. It doesn't like to see itself in that way, but we do come together when need be, often in moments of crisis."
Anthony Bourdain, Vogue Magazine

Cooler Than Thou

The Soldiers' and Sailors' Arch

"If Paris is your stuffy grandmother, then New York is your cooler-than-thou older sibling, the one who lets you break curfew but also hardly acknowledges your existence."
Marina Khorosh, Vogue Magazine

Experience of New York

"Everybody’s experience of New York is an amalgamation of the eras of New York that they loved the most, whether they were there or not, and usually when they were not there."
Rostam Batmanglij, Vogue Magazine

Invincible and Invisible

"New York is where you feel invincible, it's where you feel invisible; the thing that understands you at your worst, that pushes you toward your best. I love New York."
Whoopi Goldberg, Vogue

Looking at Yourself

Plaza 33

"I think part of picking where you live in New York is accepting who you are. Really looking at yourself and going, 'Yeah, I’m not cool enough for the West Village.'"
Tina Fey, Vogue Magazine
