Synopsis :

400 Questions and Answers to the Big Apple's oddest mysteries: from the pages of the New York Times

New York has long held a place as the nation's most admired and reviled city, provoking more debate, affection, and curiosity than any other. Generations of visitors and residents alike have pondered the city's enduring quirks and unusual traditions. In the F.Y.I. column in The New York Times, the paper's reporters and editors turn their talents to answering readers' most perplexing queries about the city, some of which include:

* City with a Past: Where was the World Trade Center originally going to be located? Where was the last opium den in New York?
* Underground, Underfoot: Is there a secret tunnel linking Police Headquarters to a nearby tavern? What was the busiest day in subway history?
* The Name Game: Is there really a Main Street in Manhattan? What was the Street of Brides?
* And lots more!

Amply illustrated with Stuart Goldenberg's whimsical cartoons, and with an introduction from Constance Rosenblum, editor of the Times's City section, Only in New York is sure to generate laughter, delight, and "Aha!" reactions in anyone who has ever been stumped by one of Gotham's countless oddities.

À propos des auteurs: Since the launch of The Crossword in 1942, The New York Times has captivated solvers by providing engaging word and logic games. For generations, The Times' crossword has been considered the gold standard for puzzlers of all skill levels. In 2014, New York Times Games added The Mini Crossword, followed by popular digital games Wordle, Spelling Bee, Connections, and Strands.
