Favorite Celebrations ~ New York
New York has a way of getting under the skin. Skyscrapers, subway songs, late-night laughter, and quiet
corners in the middle of it all — the city holds a thousand stories at once. Songwriter
Cole Porter caught that fierce affection in his lyric:
“I happen to
like
New York, I happen to like this
burg…
I happen to like
New York.”
Below are Daily Celebrations rooted in the city’s spirit — actors, artists, athletes, comics, pioneers, singers, places, and writers whose lives are woven into New York’s skyline of stories.
