Catcher MGP by Ryan Sacramone https://padlet.com/rsacramone2024_2/y48jmgqy7pnge2ir ajdfal;sdfasldjf en-us 2020-12-15 16:25:30 UTC 2023-03-04 23:29:07 UTC hello@padlet.com Dear Reader rsacramone2024_2 https://padlet.com/rsacramone2024_2/y48jmgqy7pnge2ir/wish/1020686916 Dear Reader, 
 If you are someone who either doesn’t live in New York City or hasn’t spent much time there, Holden’s adventure through New York can seem confusing and complicated.  So we’ve decided to make his journey a little more clear. We’ll show every (real) place that Holden visits, where they are in comparison to each other, and images of what that place looked like in the early 1950s and what it looks like now. We also decided to share how that place changed because of its mention in The Catcher in the Rye and some additional fictional pieces to give you a sense of what life was like in New York City in 1951. 
From,
Ryan Sacramone and Ronald DeMyers.

New York City in 1951 was a bustling metropolis of music and business. It was home to three of the biggest record labels in the country and people came from miles around to try their luck in the big apple. You could see women in poodle skirts, or men with giant sideburns. You could see kids playing in the streets with the newly invented hula hoop, or playing games like “kick the can”. It wasn’t all fun and games though, the city was also home to over 100,000 homeless people, many of whom were mentally challenged due to major cutbacks in physic ward funding. Prostitution was also extremely common in New York and many bars had “extra entertainment” in the back if requested.

We decided to make the timeline as a refresher as to which places Holden goes and in what order. it was meant to be the first thing you click on 
Map
We put the map in to fill the gaps that the timeline didn't for example, the timeline showed you the when and the what, but the map was meant to show you the where. 
Review
The last piece of the puzzle was why Holden went to each place.
Advertisements
We put this in to show you what normal things looked like back then, and how they've changed, for example, cigarette ads are way less common than they were back then. 
Top ten list 
The idea here was to say that if you were to visit New York at some point, here's the spots we recommend you hit. 
Song
We put this in because it felt like a good summary of the book. ]]> 2021-01-06 21:05:31 UTC https://padlet.com/rsacramone2024_2/y48jmgqy7pnge2ir/wish/1061153690 Top 10 List rdemyers2024 https://padlet.com/rsacramone2024_2/y48jmgqy7pnge2ir/wish/1061177393 In my opinion this is what I think the top ten places Holden visits are
