Human settlement in the space that is now called New York began as far back as 10,000 BC. It is not surprising, therefore, that the thirteen colonies that created the United States had the New York colony in their number. Since then, it has been a central part of the definition of the American Dream and the administration to bring it to fruition that George Washington was sworn in as the First President of the United States at New York City’s Federal Hall [1]. The influence of New York State extends greatly beyond the country, as the United nations also positioned their headquarters in New York city of New York.

Perhaps one of the biggest gifts ever given is the Famous ‘Statue of Liberty’ which is placed at the Liberty island, Manhattan, New York. It is an impressive piece of priceless art from France to United States conceived by the president of the French movements against slavery, Édouard René de Laboulaye, and designed by French sculptor, Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, in a bid to commemorate the victory of the Union in the civil war and with great hope that the French populace can look up to draw strength from the statue. Thus, this monument has become an iconic representation of the principles on which the U. S. Is founded on – freedom, opportunity and democracy [2].

At the base of the Statue of Liberty, the Liberty Island is where the first hospital in the country was built. This hospital was intended to cater to immigrants who could not make it into the country due to ill health [3]. Most of these immigrants come from the neighboring nation, Canada, since Canada shares a border with the United States at New York. A part of this border is the site of the Niagara Falls, one of the most popular waterfalls in the world and a natural demarcation between the city of Ontario in Canada and New York State of the United States of America [4]. Thus, Canada and New York State play vital parts in their respective economies [5].

This border has a bloody history, being the venue and war front of the military disagreement between the British Empire and the U. S that began on the 18th of June in 1812 and ended three years later, on the same day of February [6].

Speaking of business, the New York Exchange is the biggest stock exchange location in the world, if dollar volume is the considered yardstick [4]. Also, only Vermont surpasses New York in the production of maple syrup [7]. Similarly, New York is only surpassed by Washington in apple production, but some residents might not lead the sweetest lives with the State of New York ranking first in the record of states’ per capita tax burden [8] [9].

Of course, life is never going to be easy in a state with that has the most populated city in the whole of the United States [1] [10]. A state with such a fast pace of developing civilization that a recorded 4,000 farms have been sacrificed to push the development of real estate in the state since the 1980s. One would require the type of mental toughness displayed by the Mohawk Ironworkers, a tribe of ironworkers that are responsible for virtually all skyscrapers that design the New York skyline. They are preferred because of their unique ability to work with all boldness no matter the height of altitude they are in, and their exceptional work ethic is extremely admirable [11].

Keron Thomas definitely knew this when he hijacked a train of the New York City Subway and drove it around for more than two hours even at the young age of 16. While it might be a bad example, he also needed to study the MTA manual alongside months of relentless planning [12]. So, kudos to him.
