Personality Holden Caulfield?

The Seattle Times wrote an article about the NY places Holden Caulfield visits in Catcher in The Rye .

One of which is the Central Park Zoo.

Should ontheinside occasionally profile fictional characters, in literature and/or film?

Very nice: Chloe created a couple Google maps with our ontheinside.info recommendations.

Here’s one of the East Village,
and one of David Wain’s recommendations.

The people behind the graffiti documentary Bomb It mention our article on Five Pointz as recommended by TooFly right here.

New York’s new campaign

The city released this new ad spot to promote tourism in the city.

They also have a section called “Just Ask the Locals” where 5 celebs talk about some favorites places in the city. Obviously reminiscent of OTI but a bit more family/tourist oriented than we are. Regardless, it’s nice to see that the city (behind a large budget and research) values this type of content.

Did you notice?
