We asked frequent visitors and residents to share their favorite Manhattan neighborhoods and what about them is so special.

We hope that knowing a little more about the features of these coolest neighborhoods in NYC will make it easier for you to choose a destination next time you’re in New York City.

The best experience you can have in Harlem – besides a Gospel Brunch show, is to attend Amateur Night at the historic Apollo Theater.
