Thank you for visiting my blog. As you can see this site is just getting going. The concept is simple - this blog is an "anything goes, no rules apply" look at the unique city of Manhattan. As John Lennon put it, "If I'd lived in Roman times, I'd have lived in Rome. Where else? Today America is the Roman Empire and New York is Rome itself." From its economic prominence to its artistic prowess, Manhattan has been a cultural icon for centuries. But this blog is not about what we all know about Manhattan. This blog aims to tell the lesser known stories behind it, the hidden stories if you will. With all of the culture and history that have packed this island since it was sold by the Indians in the early 1600s, there are many stories. Stay tuned, and I look forward to adding my first post soon.
Cheers
