Should someone experience New York city at least once in their life?

[lnvictus]

Or that place is not worth visiting?

[SSM12]

Yes. 100% like 10 years ago, but I’m sure you can still have a good time now. I would never live there now though.

[Reserrection]

Visiting is worth it, living there probably not

[LethalGunz34]

Yes. It is a completely different world. And check out all the boroughs.

[SirFapsAIot]

Or that place is not worth visiting?

CLIFFS: No it's not even worth visiting, it's a cesspool. None of this is fear mongering, it's actually as bad as it seems. Need to get Giuliani back in charge and punish the absolute sh!t out of these people.

I've never been to another city like NYC. Idk what's comparable, maybe Tokyo?

Lot's to do in NYC. I'd stay away from the typical touristy chit like the statue of liberty or ellis island or times square.

Central Park is cool. So is Bryant park. MacDougal Street for bar hopping and the meat packing district. Their Chinatown is like no other China town I've seen. Koreatown is cool too.

Some pretty cool nighclubs in Brooklyn as well. I remember going to Output and Verboten, but I think they're closed now.

You won't get bored there that's for sure.

[AlfBundy]

Yeah maybe one year in NYC and one year on a beach in Cali

[TugOfPeace]

lived here for a year to say I did it

would recommend only if you're rich and can tolerate chitty living conditions

still have 4 months to go, not sure if I'm gonna stay

[N0rds]

Yes, but you are 10-15 years too late to enjoy safe/normal NYC.


After Rudy left, and the democrats are letting it slip into a communist shithole, I refuse to even leave the airport when layovering.


I spent a summer living out there in 2008 and it was awesome. But none of that is left, everyone is abandoning the city (even my cousins bailed, and he was front end of Barclays making $$$$$$$). Its a violent, lawless, migrant camp now. Don't go near, if you value your life.

No its nothing anymore. It's not what it was. It's not what it became. It's not even itself.

New york, Las Vegas, Paris, Dublin, Miami, Los Angeles,

All of these cities became self aware of their city "brand" and started to cultivate it rather than let it grow naturally.

Would a city in Nebraska properly "pretend" to be las vegas? No. Of course not. They wouldn't get it right. They'd have all the trappings and look and even the crowds and the shows but it would be missing the natural essence of 80s vegas.

Same with new york (and the others)

We don't have New York anymore. We have a city that was New York that became a city trying to be new york.

[yieldtonothing]

not you

[Kormo]

Only the strong survive here. Stick to the burbs kid

[stevemckenna]

It sucks. It smells like wet garbage.
