Description
On her first morning in Manhattan, Julie bought a bagel from a cart, got lost twice in the subway, and was nearly run over by a yellow cab on Lexington Avenue. She loved every single minute. By the end of the week she had walked the High Line, eaten pizza standing up at two in the morning, and decided that she would one day live in a tiny apartment with a fire escape and a view of the water towers. She called her mother from Times Square just to say so.
This box is for everyone who feels that way about New York. An apple, the city’s beloved emblem, carries the I Love New York theme, and a yellow taxi can be lifted away separately, ready to dash off downtown. It is a cheerful memento for anyone fresh back from the city, a going-away gift for a friend moving to Brooklyn, or a nostalgic wink for a New Yorker living far away. It looks wonderful on a desk beside a skyline print, ready to remind you of the city that never sleeps. The bright red apple and sunny yellow cab make a joyful pairing.
