An Ode to New York City

The NYC Years: November 30th, 2013 — March 9th, 2020

2,292 days of living in the city I’d dreamed of moving to since I was 9 years old

A night in the city with a friend — 8/12/16

Times Square, 1st official night as an NYC resident — 11/30/13

New York City is my home.

But in light of this deadly pandemic, coupled with moving overseas upon my graduation from Columbia, I’m afraid my time in it has abruptly come to an end.

And so, New York — to thee, I write you my final tribute, now.

Somewhere in Astoria, Queens — 7/14/14

From here on out, I know that I’ll live vicariously through memories of my friends and I in the heart of the greatest city I’ve ever known

Memories of the city and me, myself, & I
