I think only the fire escapes on the front facade of midsize brick buildings are pretty uniquely NYC. Otherwise, I can see midrise late 19th century tenements right now from the window in the depressed downtown of an Upstate NY city that I am visiting. Midrise brick Victorian tenements are also all over the UK. Those in NYC are indeed interesting (mostly due to the network of fire escapes), but I find the enormous brick towers more impressive. A brick is a small warm red or brown object, but when you put thousands of them together to reach the sky, I just say "oh wow, oh wow, oh wow"...
I think you would like the Western Union buildings if you like brickwork
Check out 60 Hudson Street in Manhattan
Also 32 Avenue of the Americas/6th Avenue

You’re the one telling others they are wrong all the time! That’s the problem. You have very specific definitions in your mind for some reason and instead of trying to follow conversations and understand what others are saying, you’d rather pick apart other people’s posts. Like you think you know everything already. You do this all the time. Give me a break. You don’t even live in the city. There’s no way you can fully understand what people are saying given your lack of experience. But you want to argue all the time! Why? Do you think you’re smarter than everyone else? This board should be about sharing experiences, not whatever you’re doing.
And it sounds like you don’t bother opening up links. You don’t really want to learn then. I’m sorry I wasted my time in the past looking those things up for you. I thought you actually wanted to learn but you just want to argue.
And you make no sense with your anecdote comments. Really no sense. Basically you pick and choose what you want to believe. You don’t really care about being accurate.
Whatever. I give up on you. I’ve been skipping most of your posts lately anyway. You’ve basically turned into nywriterdude with your nonsense and taking over and derailing threads.
Thanks. Don't sweat it tho

We should all ease up on l1995. He is only a small child that hasn't been educated in life yet. Not being from, nor ever living in NYC, there is also a cultural disconnect between us and him. We need to keep giving him guidance before we lose him forever. Don't give up on the ignorant during the infant years.
Andrew Freedman Home is pretty cool. Watch their website for some events where you can get to go inside (otherwise it is closed to the public). Sometimes they have art events and open mic nights. Also read the wikipedia page for why it was built in the first place -- interesting history!

You're a suburbanite at heart, you would be happy with the MAGA folk out in Suffolk County
Soundview ferry is coming this summer and I think that’ll be a fun ride. I’m still into idea of extending it one more stop to Throgs Neck where that SUNY Maritime College is and see if there could be some kind of cost-saving partnership for everyone.

I was just trying to stick up for you. You seem to rub a lot of people the wrong way around here.
And Nassau are the suburbanites, not Suffolk.
