Oftentimes when people think of NYC, they think of skyscrapers, Central Park, The Empire State Building, and the people, culture, and speed of life. What few overlook is that this is a city of rivers and islands connected by bridges and tunnels. This image highlights just how much water is present in the area.

There is a lot of history here that is easy to forget in a place that is constantly surging forward in so many aspects of our lives. so...take a moment and soak it in.
