City Limits Summary

In the article City Limits by Colson Whitehead, he explains his lifestyle living in New York. He first talks about his first ever experience “Building his New york” which was on the No.1 Train looking out the window on the way to 125th st. Whitehead goes on to tell us that you should never listen to what others have to say about New York, you should go out and experience it for yourself. He then goes on to say That New York is always changing, nothing usually stays the same. The movie theaters, restaurants, stores, etc wont be here in a couple years from now. Whitehead then goes on to tell the readers that we neglect a lot of the things that we have now and regret them later. He says that we can never make proper goodbyes. I Completely agree, even now a lot of things are changing in the neighborhoods that we live in today. I learned a lot from Colson, you should enjoy and appreciate your “New York” and never take anything for granted.
