Published: April 24, 2022 by VPR Producer

New York City is home to more than 8.4 million people. For many, the Big Apple is seen as the center of the universe; it’s the most populous city in the U.S. and is a must-see destination for billions across the globe. But the metropolis is much more than its typical stereotypes. Look a little closer and you’ll find many hidden gems throughout the city. Tour guide and author Laurie Lewis joins Viewpoints to shed some light on the stories behind some of the city’s most famous buildings and parks.
