Epicgenius (talk | contribs) Reword. It should be either "in Manhattan, New York City", or "in the New York City borough of Manhattan"; NYC is not a borough of Manhattan. In any case, the state is unnecessary. Additionally, the {{more citations needed}} tag is unnecessary for an article of this length, as all of the info in question is sourced. |
