60 things you probably didn’t know about New York City!

I will not look into all 60 in detail…but I wanted to sweeten your week with my favorite ones!

#7 Everybody in the entire city who was moving apartments had to move on May 1.

I was shocked when my husband told me that our landlord gave us 'only' a two year lease - we just moved in. Really we have to do this again in two years? But until World War II it was even worse…
Can you imagine the whole city playing trip to Jerusalem?

#16 On November 28th 2012, not a single murder, shooting, stabbing or other incident of violent crime in NYC was reported for an in tire day. The first time in basically ever…hopefully not the last one!

#20 There is a birth in New York City every 4.4 minutes. So is OB Gyn the second most wanted career in New York after 'being in finance'?


#27 In nine years, Madison Square Garden's lease is up and it will have to move. I wonder when the Statue of Liberty will have to be relocated to make room for apartments?




#29 It can cost over $289,000 for a one-year hot dog stand permit in Central Park….I will never argue with you guys over a three dollar bun again, promised.

#32 There are fake buildings in the city that are used for subway maintenance and ventilation.

#54 It would cost about $17,000 to take a cab from NYC to L.A.

#59 The price of a slice of pizza and the cost of a single ride on the subway has been nearly equal for the past 50 years.

Have a great week here in New York and everywhere else!
