Historic Travel US - Many Faces of New York DVD: Historic Travel US Many Faces of New York DVD |
| Product Description : Few places on earth thrill, as does the bustling metropolis of New York. The city?s multi-ethnic and multi cultural makeup has earned it several enviable soubriquets such as "the West?s Bazaar of the East" and "Melting Pot of the World?s Cultures". One only has to view the clip Around the World in New York to get a feel of the cultural diversity that existed in New York in the 40s. Through vivid shots of Lower Manhattan?s chaotic street bazaars and colorful images of various festivals such as the centuries old St. Patrick?s Day Parade and the clamorous Chinese New Year celebrations, the film offers glimpses of life in New York. A Puerto Rican ball game and a peep into an Italian kitchen provide further evidence of the New York?s multinational make up. In stark contrast to the vibrant scenes you will witnesses in the previous clip, For the Living offers a stark, gloomy and touching account of the miserable lives people in New York had to endure, before the Government stepped in with a practical and affordable solution to the city?s pressing need for affordable houses. Rochester a City of Quality provides a thrilling finale to an absorbing account of life in New York. The wide streets, sparkling shopping complexes and comfortable and elegant housing shown in this clip showcase the outstanding determination of Rochester to become the best city in the world. |
