A city/world, the capital of globalization, a film set, a vertical city, an urban laboratory, a metropolis that contains all superlatives…When one evokes the Big Apple, a thousand images come to mind. Here are 100 words –– from “Community” to “Water Towers” to “Hip-Hop” to “Occupy Wall Street” to “Air Conditioning” to “Rats” to “Skyscraper” to “Urban Farms” to “Pizza” to “Robert Moses” to “The Bronx” to “Soho” –– that sketch out a portrait of a city that is at the same time familiar and exotic, but which even when we think we know it never stops to reinvent itself!
