My Favorite Things - New York City

We all have a personal version of New York City. Its jumble of cultures, the diversity of its neighbourhoods and its rich history make it a place that is unique to every person who visits or lives there. So inevitably, if you were to ask someone what is THE quintessentially "New York" thing, you'd get an array of answers. For some, the essence of the city can be found at a neighbourhood restaurant on the corner of some back street, while others might choose a boutique, a walk, a park, an attitude, a graffiti covered wall, a doorway... 

This is the little challenge I gave to CloudRaker’s creative team during our recent trip to the Big Apple. With a wink to Coltrane's classic, I asked the team to share their "favorite things" in the city. This is a pilot experiment; the idea is to extend this exercise using different "groups" of people, whether they come from the world of advertising, music, art or sport, in hopes of discovering and experiencing a city through the eyes of these diverse personalities.
