For me it was Brasov in Romania. It was more beautiful than I had expected and really liked the vibes of this medieval city.

I lived near JSq (07306) for a number of years.

Same-same, the City is Times Square, Herald Square, a rockin' flea market, museums, apartments, bars, Mollys and Ryans for sure, pizza, zoos, Nuts4Nuts carts hiding the downtown smell in '01 and WoW/UnionSqCafe/11MadisonPk.

Now that ZlataPraha is closed in Astoria, half the pizza joints and shops are lifecycled out to something else, and the crime has come up under a succession of milquetoast mayors, I dream of a NYC that never existed so it's something we never lost.
