Those pictures almost give you a real sense of what it's like to be there and all of the different types of people you might see.

That's what I love about these photographers and the photos they take. They have a real feel for the streets. Manhattan has several public squares/plazas where you can do people watching, but really any street will do. I think that's mostly due to the fact that New Yorkers - particularly in Manhattan and large parts of the other boroughs - must spend at leat part of their day on the street, whether going to work, shopping, the park, or just generally being outdoors. Summer, winter, spring, or fall, it's always the same. I think the streets are what really give New York it's energy. I know it does for me.

Elevated tracks went all the way down to the tip of Manhattan. That began to change with public control of the subways, as some lines became redundant. I believe most Manhattan els were torn down by the late 50's, but I don't remember exactly.

Here's a 1939 map of the IRT system (today's numbered trains) with the elevated lines in blue...

On March 10 in New York City we gave away close to 1,000 free tickets in a stunt that required people to follow clues on our @jetblue Twitter account
and find us at various locations around the city for their chance at a ticket. Visit our Flickr account to see a ton of great photos from this hugely successful
promotion that took us from the Financial District to Union Square before ending in Midtown at Rockefeller Center
