New York City Overview
We New Yorkers have heard the proud refrain from local politicos many times: how New York is better than ever. The FBI has rated New York as the safest big city in the United States. It's cleaner than it ever was. The number of hotels, restaurants, and clubs keeps growing and gets better every year. This rebirth has helped bring in over 44 million tourists in 2006 and even more are projected in the next few years. Everything seems rosy. Why then, are some of us worried about our city? With this boom, those of us who have been here a long time and have seen the changes from a city in need to what it is today, fret that this renaissance is one without character. We worry that with a Starbucks on every corner and new, glass and steel condos sprouting like mushrooms at the expense of an old favorite bookstore or our local Cuban/Chinese joint, that we are slowly losing our identity; the fear being that we will become like everycity USA.
