only in new york...


... could someone get away with writing this -

... In Olmsted's day Brooklyn was called the City of Churches, and today you need only to walk through its streets or rumble through its heart on the subway to know it has an old and deep soul, deeper at least than any other place in this world that I've ever been.
- Fred Goodman, The Secret City

I like Brooklyn, but this is ridiculous. Where else in the world have you been Mr. Goodman - not as a tourist, that is? Manhattan?
