Manhattan Directory
Manhattan is a particularly unique place. An overwhelming majority of its residents don’t own a car, as there is more than enough public transportation services available. The New York City Subway allows Manhattan’s residents to travel easily between the other four boroughs of the city. There are also the famous Yellow Cabs, which number in the tens of thousands driving around New York City.
Ride the free Staten Island Ferry between Staten Island and Manhattan or walk to your destination along the grid-like streets. With such a close proximity to everything you’ll ever need, what more could you want from a thriving area like Manhattan?
The densely populated state county is home to bright and aspiring young professionals as well as a wide variety of ethnic groups. Through centuries of immigration, the culture of Manhattan has been shaped into the multicultural microcosm that it is today. Throughout New York City you’ll find an abundance of cultural centers, which focus on music, film, theater, dance and visual art.
With each borough being renowned for a different style of music, you’re sure to find something nearby that fits right in with your taste in music. New York City is an important hub for the blues, disco, hip hop and punk rock such as the New York Dolls and the Ramones who have spent time performing at the recently closed CBGB music club in Manhattan.
