"He adored New York City. He idolized it all out of proportion..."
-Woody Allen, Manhattan
Y como para no. Allen dixit. Haciendo un rememember esta tarde me he topado con las fotos de mi viaje a Nueva York de hace unos años, y no he podido evitar compartirlas aquÃ. Quizás por mi latente pasión por el diseño y la arquitectura, quizás por la mitificación llevada a cabo por pelÃculas y series desde que se inventó el primer proyector. Quizás por el magnetismo que desprende esta bulliciosa urbe. Quizás por el ruido de la "quinta", el sentimiento bohemio del "village", la sensación de estar en un reportaje de Harper's Bazaar al pasear por el SoHo, el cambiar de continente cruzando Grand Street para pasar de Little Italy a Chinatown, ser una hormiga en el Financial District, entrar en epilepsia en Times Square, sentarte en las escaleras del MET cual Blair Waldorf , flipar con todo el MOMA en sÃ, convertirte en el rey del carbohidrato, de los hot dogs y de los cupcakes del "Magnolia" y sobre todo, ver la vida de la ciudad. Ver a la gente pasar. La imagen y forma de la ciudad es fiel reflejo de la gente que la habita. Desde señoras enjoyadas paseando a su dalmata por Park Avenue hasta cualquier doble de Kobe Bryant en su version más rapera-chunga. Por todo esto, o por no se yo que, me encantó. He de volver y lo haré. Nunca se descubre una ciudad del todo, y siempre es bueno volver a verlas con distintos ojos. Espero que os gusten. Viva Woody. Viva Manhattan

"He adored New York City. He idolized it all out of proportion..."
-Woody Allen, Manhattan
And who does not? Allen dixit. I was
going through old files this afternoon and I came across the pictures from my
trip to New York back in 2009 and I couldn’t help but to share them with you.
Maybe because of my already existing passion towards design and architecture,
maybe because of it being a myth due to film and television. Maybe because this
bustling city it irradiates a special magnetism. The noise in the “fifth”, the
bohemian spirit of the “village”, the ability to change cultures while crossing
Grand Street going from Little Italy to Chinatown, feeling like an ant in the
Financial District, getting an epilepsy attach while in Times Square, sitting
at the MET steps just like Blair Waldorf, freaking out with the whole MOMA,
becoming the king of burgers, carbohydrates, hot dogs and “Magnolia’s” cupcakes and above
all, watching the city flowing. Watching people go by. New York’s image and
shape is a true reflection of the contrast of the people that live there.
Bejeweled ladies taking their Afghan hounds and dalmatas for a walk and the
rapper version of Kobe Bryant. For all of this and for many more, I loved it. I
have to go back and I will go back. You never discover a city a 100% and it’s
always good to see it with different eyes. I hope you like them. Long live
Woody. Long live Manhattan.
