I’ve lived in Queens for pretty much my whole entire life. Out of all the long walks I’ve had, I will never forget my senior year prom night. A bunch of friends and I decided not to go to prom because we didn’t have any interest for the once in a life time special event. Since it was one of my friends birthday, we decided to go to the city that night without planning anything at all. We ended up in St. Marks entering a pizza shop called 2 bros. It was the best dollar slice pizza I’ve ate in a while. After that we just wondered around for three hours, and amazed at the amount of people out at 3am. I didn’t know why i was surprised, but I enjoyed the feeling of being outside in the city so late with my friends and these random people. Once we left Manhattan and got back to Queens, and went to Steinway in Astoria. We played pool and then ate from one of those mobile carts outside the streets. What I noticed that morning was that there was a huge difference walking in Manhattan streets versus walking in Queens streets. In Manhattan there were many stores open where you could hang out. Plus the huge amount of people in Manhattan made me feel more alive then the streets in Queens. Queens at 4am is like a ghost town, which made the vibe dead. That’s when it came to me. The saying “New York City is the City that never sleeps”.
“City Limits” is a story from “The Colossus Of New York” written by Colson Whitehead. He starts off saying that he was born in New York and how the city makes your home town look really “drab” and “tiny”. Colson states that you start building your own New York once you’ve laid your eyes on it. That first glimpse you see of the city is that “first brick” into growing your New York City. One thing that Colson said that was interesting is when he refers the Met Life Building to the Pan Am. Of course he is wrong, but at the same time who is to tell him what is what? Whitehead’s New York is different from everyone else, because you are a New Yorker when what was there before is more real and solid than what is here now.
