The Re-emergence of the High Line
I have never been to New York but one of the things I want to see when I go there is the High Line when it is done. The New York Times has a nice article on how it is coming along. It's enough to make me want to move to New York. Oh right, I have always wanted to live in New York but it's another reason why I want to live in New York.
Speaking of New York, at coffee yesterday I was listening to some co-workers mention that they would want to live in a small town. I thought they were crazy and when I mentioned New York, Boston, San Francisco, London, and L.A. as cities I want to live in, they thought I was certifiably crazy. Each carries risks. In several of those places, the chances of being run over by a run away swather is a lot less then the others. Nothing is worse than "death by swather".

These projects tend to attract a bunch of creatives, making for both a fun neighborhood, as well as a good place to raise kids. It can be like planting a new church in a suburb at the edge of town - people are open to new relationships.
As far as big (NY, SF, LA, Chi, London) goes, look at your MBTI type. If you are a rare type, stay away from small towns; your career will do better in a big city.
