    Time Out New York / Issue 628 : Oct 11–17, 2007
    Sights & Blights

    Icons: Sights

    Love ’em or hate ’em (we do some of each), these things are sooo New York.

    Sights

    1 Yellow cabs
    2 The Pepsi sign
    3 Katz’s Delicatessen
    4 Wonder Wheel
    5 Water towers
    Sights 6–10


    Katz’s Delicatessen

    In business since 1888 and last renovated ages ago (hence the WWII flair), this is the ultimate deli: brushed chrome, neon signage and a glass front filled with ceiling-scraping pastramis on rye. Hats off to any joint where prime ministers and drunks can feast in harmony.

      Personally liked the boxy old cabs better.
