Please list something that your city is remembered for world wide.
Please do not list companies unless the companies have a cultural impact on people, like McDonalds in foreign nations, with food styles and the golden arches being the most recognized symbol in the food industry. Don't say something like Wells Fargo, that's just plain ridiculous.
My city:
Houston: "Houston we have a problem..." first words spoken in space, to mission control in Houston.
If you see someone else post about your city, you can post something else your city is known for, some cities are known for more than one thing of course.
"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
But probably this part
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights..."
I still get chills at these words
