New York City - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia New York City is also home to the nation's largest community of American Jews, with an estimate of 972,000 in 2002, and is the worldwide headquarters of the Hasidic Lubavitch sect and the Bobover and Satmar branches of Hasidism. New York is a city of "great museums" with the Metropolitan Museum of Art's assemblage of historic art, the Museum of Modern Art and Guggenheim Museum's 20th century collection, and the American Museum of Natural History and its Hayden Planetarium focusing on the sciences. New York City is also the home of the four major U.S. television networks, ABC, CBS the Fox Network, and NBC, as well as news organization CNN, and while the local film industry is dwarfed by that of Hollywood, its billions of dollars in revenue make it the second largest in the nation. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/New_York%2C_New_York   (7614 words)

Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (I-278) The bridge, built by the city of New York in 1939, connects the Penny Bridge section of Queens with the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn. The design of the new superstructure, which consists of two parallel box girders, allowed for the bridge to be built in two stages, minimizing disruptions to both commuters and community residents. If a new span were to be built, it would have a clearance of 90 feet (less than the current 125 feet) in order to improve sight distances and ease congestion on the expressway, and to accommodate the existing traffic on Newton Creek. www.nycroads.com /roads/brooklyn-queens   (3618 words)
