Did you ever try to find a parking place for your car in Manhattan ? Tell me, what kind of name is "Manhattan"?
Who thought that one up?...

I would rather try to park my car in Boston. It is a far better place than....a suburb called, "Manhattan"
that word sounds like some reference to Batman and Robin in some crime show..

and here it is, instantly..from the search just completed..a map of Manhattan. (it does instant searches too)
