New York New York

7th March 2004

Immensity, diversity, and a tradition of defying tradition characterise the city known as the ‘Crossroads of the World’. Since its earliest days, New York has scoffed at the timid offerings of other American cities. It boasts the most immigrants, the tallest skyscrapers, the biggest museum in the Western Hemisphere, and its plenty of large landfills. Even the vast blocks of concrete have their own gritty charm.

New York City is full of folks. The stars are invisible behind the array of lights. The buildings soar, the subways scream, the people scramble. All is rushed. There may be grime, but for every inch of it, there’s a yard of silver lining. Countless people mean countless pockets of culture - you can find every kind of ethnicity, food, art, language, attitude. There’s flamenco at an outdoor café, jazz in historic speakeasies, house and techno in a flashy club - whatever the question, New York has the answer.

This trip took place from 18 to 26 July 2002. The weather was incredibly hot in Manhattan, but the good thing is that the days were long. It became totally dark only at about 2200 hours. <A HREF="http://amazing_race.tripod.com/">Click here for an Architectural Tour of Manhatten.</A>

These pictures were taken via a film camera, and subsequently "scanned" using my new Nikon digital camera. Which is why the photo quality isn't that good.
