Like all great cities, New York has an indefinable aura all its own.
Rather than diminish that aura, the events of September 11, 2001, when terrorists crashed jetliners into the World Trade Center towers, only intensified the spotlight already trained on the city and gave the term "New Yorker" a truly global definition. In a sense, when the two towers collapsed, the city's borders collapsed with them, allowing a tide of worldwide affection to wash over New York, softening its image as a place inhabited by rude and ruthless people. Indeed, even in its darkest days the city lives up to the slogan originally coined for the Plaza hotel: "Nothing unimportant ever happens in New York."

New York's history is a testament to this sentiment. This is, after all, the city that swore in the first U.S. president, George Washington, and witnessed the influx of millions of immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Known around the world as a major cultural and financial center, this is a hub of fashion, art, publishing, broadcasting, theater, and advertising. And, of course, the city is famous for New Yorkers -- for their panache, persistence, diversity, and strength of character, all qualities that were consistently evident throughout the crisis that unfolded in fall 2001. Today, New York remains as much a city of people, places, and things as it is a city of moments. For some visitors, their special "New York moment" comes when they spot a street or building made familiar by movies or television, like An Affair to Remember or Friends or Seinfeld.

In the mind's eye, Audrey Hepburn is eternally pairing diamonds and a doughnut as she strolls down Fifth Avenue to have breakfast at Tiffany's. And the miniature park on Sutton Place will always be where Woody Allen and Diane Keaton began their angst-ridden Manhattan love affair, with the 59th Street Bridge gleaming beyond and Gershwin's music swelling in the background.
There's a moment of sudden magic when you experience one of those only-in-New York experiences, like when a gum-cracking waitress calls you "hon," or when a cabbie risks life and limb to cross several lanes of traffic to pick you up. There's also the thrill of discovering one of New York's cities-within-the-city: Mulberry Street in Little Italy; Mott Street in Chinatown; Park Avenue's enclave of wealth and privilege; SoHo and TriBeCa, with their artistic types dressed in black from head to toe; or Eighth Avenue in Chelsea, the nexus of one of the city's prominent lesbian and gay communities.

The first glimpse of a landmark could excite a visitor's infatuation, too: frenetic Grand Central Terminal, bursting at the seams with commuters; the concrete caverns of Wall Street, throbbing with power and ambition; the Empire State Building, its top 30 stories festively illuminated; or the Statue of Liberty, which neither cliche nor cheap souvenir can render common.

To this list of must-see landmarks has been added a somber new entry: "ground zero," the site of the World Trade Center. Many visitors make the pilgrimage here, to deposit flowers at makeshift shrines, view the indescribable destruction, or simply pay their respects.
