Luckily I don't live in Manhattan. I live on LI so I take about an hour train ride east and I'm home. When I first started working, I wanted to work in the city. After 6 years working in Manhattan......well, if it sank tomorrow I wouldn't care too much. There are tons of great opportunities, anything you want to do you can, and it seems as everyday you hear about something new that you never though existed from mild to wild....
How about a place that just serves Grilled Cheeses, or Peanut Butter& Jelly Sandwiches, or rice pudding? Yup, there is at least one of each in Manhattan!
Shooting Range - yes there is one in Manhattan (Indoors and no it's not in the projects)
Driving Range - Chelsea Piers - drive golf balls onto a barge floating on the Hudson
Ice rinks, zoos, ponds, seaport, the smell of stale urine in the subway on a hot summer day or perhaps the smell of it as you pass a phonebooth, ....$2 can get you almost anywhere......forget about restaurants and nightlife....It's all here!
That said, I am pretty much done with it all! I like to go home where it's more quiet, there is grass, I am not hearing a horn blow or siren every 2 minutes, and I CAN DRIVE!!! I love driving so moving into the city where I would pay about $1,400 a month for a studio the size of some closests.....just not my cup o tea!
