The city that never sleeps just woke up.
New York is known for its pizza, its tall buildings, buzzing nightlife, and most of all - its attitude. It’s true that New Yorkers are not considered the friendliest of people - the gentile of the south or the howdy hospitality of the Midwest is certainly not present here, but there is a heart and fortitude that remains incomparable. Everyone here is not just trying to make it through, but breakthrough. We want to crash through barriers and break ceilings that otherwise held us back.
September 11, 2001 shocked us so much that we thought it would be the last time a disaster would impact us in such a detrimental way, but in creeped COVID and all the political and social drama that followed. COVID devastated New York, but because we are a resilient folk, we will not stay down. For those who may doubt that we will bounce back and become even greater, put up your right hand, pinch your fingers, and say “fuggedaboutit”. We’re not going anywhere, but up. ■
