This morning, I caught the security guard on Wall st and William st. (In the financial district) filming women as they walked by, including myself. When I asked him to stop, he laughed and continued to do so. I didn’t have my phone on me, so I came back later and he was still doing

The city is developing a “ Manhattan Plan” to add 100k homes in Manhattan and is asking for ideas: https://manhattanplan.nyc Curious what this sub thinks – where should they upzone and build more home? submitted by /u/Lisalovesreading [link] [comments]

I saw someone fall/jump from a building on Lafayette near the corner of Astor today around 5 PM. They fell into an alley way between two buildings. Called 911 but I had to go and I have no idea if this person was ok. I’m hoping someone else was there and can give me more

I’m (36M) new to New York and recently tried to schedule a dinner date with someone (29F) who works in the medical field. On the day of the date, she texted me “it’s unbearably hot today, could you pick me up later or perhaps send an uber over?” The request was a bit odd to

I come to this subreddit as I am desperate for help, I apologize if that is not the proper place. My sister has been living in NYC for almost 10 years now, she is french but got a green card. Almost two years ago she had some kind of burn out/mental breakdown and lost her

Making sure I’m not going crazy because I don’t see anything on the news wire — around 11:30 AM today, I was walking north on Hudson Street in Tribeca and it happened so quickly, but I’m 99% sure I saw a person falling from a building at Laight and Hudson Streets… they eventually landed on

Hi all – I made a promise (in prayer) that if I got my One Shot Deal, I would do an AMA. Feel free to truly ask me anything, and I’ll share what I can. Briefly: I got cancer in 2023 and managed to stay on top of rent through exhausting treatment, then completely burned

Why do (some/many) New Yorkers take a beautiful 1800s Brownstone, gut it, and turn it into a white box inside? I’m home hunting .. and I am seeing so many great brownstones that are just gutted, boring, white boxes inside … all the original moldings, carvings, stained glass, Victorian features, fireplace mantles, etc. are gone.

I recently bought a co-op and have been enjoying it for the last year or so. Recently, I have new neighbors that like to be naked all the time. It didn’t bother me at first because I just mind my business and go about my day. BUT I have noticed that they’re acting a little

Maybe it’s just me but the amount of young (30 and under) people I’ve met here that are unemployed with little desire to work is a little shocking considering how expensive this city is and how landlords ask for so much when renting out apartments here. I recently met up with two girls I met

I worked as an intern for a company in New York. From the start, they delayed paying me. My first month, I got only part of my salary. When I asked, they said the accounts team was busy filing taxes and they’d pay the rest later. Near the end of my internship, they fired me

Curious if this is a my circle thing (early 30s, white collar professionals) or a broader trend in the city (or even nationally). In the last month I’ve had three good friends as well as spoken to multiple other people in social events who have been recently laid off. Trying put my finger on the

The messaging from officials around how people in Harlem are being infected with Legionnaires has been embarrassingly bad. All they’re saying is if you feel flu like symptoms go to the hospital. Nothing specific about how people are being infected, or how to prevent infections from occurring. The most I’ve been able to gather is

A few minutes ago I felt the ground rumbling, then all of a sudden it was like a huge shockwave hit, all my dishes and silverware bounced in the cupboards and then the rumbling moved away. Did anyone else feel that? Anyone have any idea what that was? submitted by /u/Dex2Dex [link] [comments]

I didn’t realize this was a rule in nyc parks. This was just a playground right next to the street. All the doors to the park were open. I have been living in this area for about 5 years, never knew this was a thing. I was sitting with a friend, he got off with

31M. Was kinda hesitant to post this, but honestly—fkkk it. What do I have to lose? If I’m feeling this way, chances are someone else is too. Lately I’ve been feeling pretty isolated. Most weekends blur into doomscrolling, half-watching stuff, and just hanging around my apartment. Not terrible, just kind of…numb. I miss feeling connected.

Pretty self-explanatory. Why do people keep defecating (pooping) in the New York City pools? Specifically, why do people keep defecating in the Gottesman pool located in Central Park? Like seriously New Yorkers are disgusting. And before people come at me that it wasn’t a New Yorker. I am an employee of the parks department. I

Will a couple train stations flood or should we cancel dinner plans if we’re walking ? I’m In downtown Manhattan. Edit: I’m walking , dinner is 10 mins away from Home submitted by /u/omgdude_ [link] [comments]

I noticed a pattern on social media where New Yorkers, especially the natives, seem to speak of transplants in a rather negative light, saying stuff like “They’ll never be real New Yorkers” and mean stuff like that. Still, the same people seem to be much kinder and welcoming towards immigrants from other countries and have

TL;DR: Hi everyone- I was jumped by a group of people last Sunday (7/20) and I filed a police report. There’s now a warrant out for the girls arrest who organized this assault, but I feel as though the police aren’t taking it seriously because they know where she lives and have her phone number

Contrary to popular belief, this city is often asleep, and its usually at the crack of dawn. What are some things my fellow morning people do at like 6/7am? 24hr Diners, parks, long walks, bike ride, this is all I can think of right now. Any hot tips? submitted by /u/Pure-Station-1195 [link] [comments]
