Goodman NEW YORK: The very words conjure up a variety of images-exciting nightlife, financial wheeling and dealing, Broad- way, restaurants, and excitement. Indeed, admittedly to a New York provincialist, the city is the most exciting at least in the United States, and perhaps the world. New York is the melting pot of numerous ethnic heri- tages. It is the entertainment capi- tal, boasting the best in theatre, con- certs, sporting events, clubs and disco- theques. City Stargazing As for theatre, there is little in the world to match Broadway, with its glittering lights, innumerable theatres and gal- axy of stars. For concerts, Lincoln Center shines: the home of the New York Philharmonic, the New York State Theatre, the Metropolitan Opera and some of the finest ballet in the world. In sports you either love or hate the Yankees, but they are at the very least entertaining. In baseball there is also the Mets; in football both the Giants and Jets; in basketball the Knicks and Nets; and in hockey the Rangers, Is- landers and newly-born Jersey Devils. And when many other cities in the world are shutting down for the eve- ning many places in New York are just beginning to warm up for a night time of frivolity. Clubs, such as Catch A Rising Star have been the starting point for many of today's top name enter- tainers and present nightly many who hope to be tomorrow's stars. Disco- theques such as New York, New York and innumerable others don't really begin rocking until midnight or later. RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL ENTERTAINMENT CENTER. Called the showplace of the nation, Radio Cily Music Hall Entertainment center is a must-see for every visitor to The Big Apple. Located in the Rockefeller Center complex, on the Avenue of the Americas at 50th Street, the Music Hall has a seating capacity of 6,000.

Each area of the city is itself differ- ent, yet cosmopolitan. Down near the south end of Manhattan many enclaves of ethnic life abound. Chinatown, Little Italy, and the lower east side all portray life as it has been for years in this city: moving to the beat of numerous and di- verse ethnic heritages. A little further north in Soho and the village, the art of the avant-garde is nowhere more prevalent. Moving further uptown, the mid- town area is the home of major cor- porations and law firms, providing a unique concentration of financial and business activity. Moving yet further north, the city is divided into east and west by Central Park. A westsider will rarely cross the park to visit the east side and an eastsider has the same re- luctance about crossing over to visit the west side. Each of these two areas has its own distinct personality vastly (Continued on page 12) Copyright © 1982 American Bar Association Produced by the ABA Press
