About Ellen Hart Sturm

It's hard to imagine a life more quintessentially New York than Ellen Hart- Sturm's. While still a student at Jamaica High School in Queens, she was selected to be Miss Subways in the spring of 1959. The promotion, which served as the inspiration for Miss Turnstile in the classic NYC musical On the Town, placed her picture on subway trains around the city and opened the doors for a singing, acting, and modeling career.

History

Iroquois tribe

Prior to Europeans arriving in New York, the land was inhabited by Native Americans. There were two major groups of Native Americans: the Iroquois and the Algonquian peoples

AMERICAN INDIAN TRIBES

Henry Hudson

In 1609, English explorer Henry Hudson found New York Bay and the Hudson River while exploring for the Dutch. The Dutch began to settle the area. They traded with the natives for beaver furs which were popular in Europe at the time for making hats.

EUROPEANS ARRIVE

The first Dutch settlement was Fort Nassau established in 1614.Soon more settlements were built including Fort Orange in 1624 (which would later become Albany) and Fort Amsterdam in 1625. Fort Amsterdam would become the city of New Amsterdam which would later become New York City.

DUTCH COLONIZATION

In 1664, an English fleet arrived at New Amsterdam. The English took control of the colony and renamed both the city and the colony New York.

The Statue of Liberty is a large statue that stands on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. The statue was a gift from the people of France and was dedicated on October 28, 1886. It has become one of the most iconic symbols of the United States of America. The official name of the statue is "Liberty Enlightening the World", but she also goes by other names including "Lady Liberty".

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY

The statue represents the freedom and liberty of the United States democracy. The figure is modeled after a Roman goddess named Libertas. The torch she holds high represents the enlightenment of the world. There are also broken chains at her feet that symbolize the United State breaking free from tyranny. She holds a tablet in her left hand that represents the law and has July 4, 1776 inscribed on it in Roman numerals.

SYMBOLs

On September 11, 2001 the worst terrorist attack in U.S. history occurred when two hijacked planes were crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City. The attacks were launched by nineteen members of the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda. Both buildings collapsed killing nearly 3,000 people.

ATTRACTIONS IN NEW YORK

+ info

TIMES SQUARE

Manhattan's heart was once a hub for vice, teeming with sex shops and drug dealers. Over time that notorious reputation has eroded, and now the area can feel like a tourist-clogged shopping mall. If the thought of attending the annual glitzy New Year's Eve celebration gives you hives, you can see the midnight countdown .

+ info

BROOKLYN BRIDGE

When it opened in 1883, the Brooklyn Bridge was a feat of engineering: It was the first structure to cross the East River and, at the time, the longest suspension bridge in the world. Now it attracts thousands of tourists and locals, who enjoy spectacular views of lower Manhattan and other city landmarks (such as the Statue of Liberty and Governors Island) as they stroll its more-than-mile-long expanse.

+ info

CENTRAL PARK

Although it may appear on a map as a small patch of green within the grid of Manhattan streets, Central Park is an expansive space that contains enough sights and things to do to last for days. The park is home to a wide range of attractions, from impressive architecture to peaceful gardens.The park also has several ponds, and can be toured by horse-drawn carriage for the ultimate romantic sightseeing experience.

+ info

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY

Lady Liberty-or Liberty Enlightening the World, as she's officially known-was a gift from France on America's 100th birthday. A universal symbol of freedom that welcomed over 10 million immigrants sailing past to Ellis Island during the turn of the 20th century, the copper-plated sentinel stands 305 feet tall from the bottom of her base to the tip of her torch.

+ info

THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING

A famed piece of Art Deco architecture that took over 400 days to structurally complete, the skyscraper reaches an astonishing height of 1,454-feet-and while it's no longer the tallest building in New York, it held that title for several decades following its 1931 completion date.

+ info

THE CHRYSLER BUILDING

Triangle-shaped windows in its crown are lined with lights, creating a beautiful effect come nighttime. The structure pays homage to its namesake with giant eagles (replicas of ones added to Chrysler automobiles in the 1920s) in lieu of traditional gargoyles and a brickwork relief sculpture of racing cars, complete with chrome hubcaps.

+ info

THE ROCKEFELLER CENTER

Described as one of the greatest projects of the Great Depression era, Rockefeller Center is noted for the large quantities of art present in almost all of its Art Deco buildings, its expansive underground concourse, and its ice-skating rink. The complex is also famous for its annual lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree.

+ info

THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART

Also nicknamed "The Met", It's one of the few spots in the city where you could spend literally an entire day and see only a fraction of the holdings. Behind the doors of its iconic neoclassical facade lie 17 curatorial collections spanning countless eras and cultural perspectives, from prehistoric Egyptian artifacts to contemporary photography.

+ info

THE GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, often referred to as The Guggenheim, is an art museum located at 1071 Fifth Avenue on the corner of East 89th Street in the Upper East Side neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. It is the permanent home of a continuously expanding collection of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, early Modern, and contemporary art

+ info

THE 9/11 MEMORIAL AND MUSEUM

In the footprints of where the Twin Towers once stood are North America's largest man-made waterfalls, the bottoms of which seem to be impossible to see. The twin reflecting pools, the 9/11 Memorial designed by Michael Arad, are a solemn reminder of all that was lost during the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 and the World Trade Center bombing in 1993.

What are the 8 best New York foods?

FOOD

PIZZAMost people have heard - if not eaten - pizza as you can find it in most major cities around the world. But there is nothing like a New York slice! NYC has hundreds, if not thousands,- of places to get pizza. It's quintessentially a New York food.

BAGELS A bagel is a round bread product that is made with yeasted wheat dough that is shaped into a ring and boiled, then baked.

They are typically eaten at breakfast with butter or cream cheese on it. Bagels are believed to have been invented in the 1600s by Jewish communities in Poland. When Polish Jews immigrated to America in the late 19th century, bagels began to appear in NYC.

NEW YORK STYLE CHEESECAKE In 1872 an American dairyman William Lawrence of New York State unintentionally created cream cheese, similar to the French cheese Neufchâtel. New York-style cheesecake is different from traditional cheesecakes in that it includes heavy cream or sour cream. It is both silky and dense and can be quite sweet. There is nothing like it in the world.

PASTRAMI SANDWICH Pastrami is cured cuts of meat (similar to corned beef or brisket). The origins of pastrami go back to Romania. "Pastra" is the Romanian word for preserve - or in this case, cured. This style of cured meat made its way to America via Romanian Jewish immigrants who settled on the Lower East Side. Today the Lower East Side is where you can find the best pastrami sandwich in NY, at Katz's Delicatessen.

First sold in the Lower East Side by a German immigrant in the 1860s, this quick and easy food caught on quickly in NYC. Now hot dogs are about as American as it gets. A recognizable sight in NYC, hot dog carts can be found just about anywhere in Manhattan.

HOT DOGSHot dogs are another food that existed long before it arrived in the U.S.

FALAFEL Falafel is a chickpea batter made with herbs and mild spices and deep-fried into a ball a bit smaller than a golf ball. Falafel is usually eaten in pita bread like a sandwich, with some lettuce and tomato garnish and tahini (sesame paste). Falafel sandwiches or even falafel balls on their own are a cheap and quick snack.

DOUGHNUTThe concept of the doughnut goes back centuries with variations across the globe.

An early form of the doughnut made their way to America with Dutch settlers in the 1600s. At that time, doughnuts did not have holes. In fact, the first hole-making machine was invented right here in New York City in 1920! Today, many people have access to doughnuts from the chain Dunkin' Donuts, which has stores in over 36 countries. However, their donuts cannot compare with a freshly baked doughnut from a specialty doughnut shop.

BLACK-AND-WHITE COOKIE The origin of this cookie in NYC starts with a Bavarian immigrant bakery on the Upper East Side. This classic NY cookie is a big flat disc with a shortbread base and iced with fondant frosting. One half has vanilla fondant and the other half has chocolate, hence the name

CHINESE NEW YEAR

The traditional route winds along Mott, Canal and Bayard Streets in Chinatown, featuring huge dragons, mythical creatures, elaborate floats, acrobats, street performers and more. All-day cultural performances end with firecrackers and a firework display at night.

saint patrick's day

Every March, the Irish patron saint St Patrick is honored with one of the world's most famous parades. Its route runs from 44th Street to 5th Avenue and on to 86th Street, staring at 11:00 a.m. and ending around 2.30 p.m. More than 150,000 traditional Irish-American bands, organizations and clubs march wearing green to pay tribute to the old country.

THANKSGIVING

New York welcomes November with the spectacular Thanksgiving Day Parade beginning at 77th Street and winding its way past Central Park down to the flagship Macy's in Herald Square. Visitors should book hotels way in advance to get the best views of the hot air balloon floats.

NEW YEARS'S EVE

There is nowhere better on earth to ring in the New Year than the iconic Times Square Ball Drop. A tradition since 1907, at least one million people flock to see the celebritites and guest performers while another billion watch from TV.
