Many people think of NYC as a bustling metropolis full of indifference, anonymity and whatever vapors are wafting off the Gowanus Canal. That is false. (Except the vapors part.) New York is basically just a charming small town, and the following photos prove our point.

1. You could live on this street.

4. Spend a leisurely afternoon on this bridge.

5. Or at this local flea market.
