When will it be alive again?

New York City has long been the center of the universe to many. Some call it the capital of the world. Why? Well to start it is the land of opportunity, a land of immigrants and people seeking to chase their dreams. Ellis Island is where many came to start a new life in America. There are so many amazing neighboorhoods with people from all backgrounds and religions. Not to mention the energy in this city is contagious. Over the years people continued to come to New York City and chase their dreams like those who came through Ellis Isalnd. Immigrants from different nations and Americans from rural parts of the country took the journey to the big city to find themselves and all they have ever dreamed of. As New York has progressed the city became the capital of entertainment, the capital of finance, the capital of media, the capital of real estate, the capital of the arts, and grew its tourism space to an amazing 61M visitors a year. It truly is an amazing place and once you have lived there for a while, it will without a doubt change your life forever.

In the year 2020 the Coronavirus took hold of the city and has brought the city to a place that many never would believe it could ever go. Broadway shows have been canceled for the foreseeable future, you no longer see the masses of people coming in and out of Grand Central…
