At The New York Public Library, Why Is The U Written Like A V? |

I don't recollect if this is at every library, but above the 96 st one in Manhattan, Public Library is carved in and the u looks like a v. They were able to do the curves in the other letters, so I think that can't be the owing to.
It's written using the Latin alphabet, which does not embody the modern day letter 'u'. That sound was represented by what is now the letter 'v'.

Can You Look At My List And Suggest More Places To See In Manhattan? |
Mar 18, 2009 by reba | Posted in New York City
We will be there for 3 days, and this is condign a broad list of possible places- we are for sure not going to have time for all of them. We would like to remain near Mid-Manhattan, but if something is really good but further out, that's great too. Also, any general advice on visiting NYC for the first time would be appreciated. Thanks!
New York Times
Times Right
Broadway show
Madison Square Garden

(Of course we prefer free places rather than ones that charge admission)
If you attack includes a friday evening plan on going to MOMA then, free admission fri evenings. The strand is fine fantastic go to the original one on 12 st & 4th ave. Get an all day metro pass and use public transportation the subway is the quickest way to get around. Try taking the bus down fifth ave from the met to rockerfeller center. Lot cheaper than compelling a tour bus and if you talk to the other passengers they will fill you in on some NY sites you'll be passing.
Please do not stand in the middle of the sidewalks and close off other pedestrians you might get knocked down.
Good Luck and enjoy
