"New York, New York's a heck of a town. The Bronx is up and the Battery's down. The people ride in a hole in the ground....". These are the opening lyrics to Leonard Bernstein's classic musical "On The Town" that was composed in the late 1940's. MGM later made it into a movie musical. It was the first of its kind to be filmed on location in exciting NEW YORK CITY. Although much has changed since then, New York City remains one of the most fascinating cities in the world. It's not just gotten older, it's gotten better!
