By singing the songs in the proper order, the Aborigines can walk across their nation's vast deserts and always know where they are. <br> <br> <p>Far from aboriginal, most New Yorkers weren't even born here, and this overpopulated isle may seem like the opposite of Australia's trackless deserts. After a slight period of disorientation, we generally find our way around all right, whether <!-- <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/vanessavy/2233130498/" title="M2M by vanessavy, on Flickr"> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2411/2233130498_28ab38daf9_m.jpg" width="240" height="226" alt="M2M by vanessavy, on Flickr" align="right" vspace="4" hspace="4" /></a> --> we rely on street signs, subway maps or the taxi driver's orienteering skills. North of <a href="14st.htm">14th Street</a> and west of <a href="6av.htm">6th Avenue</a>, at least, the streets mainly run in straight lines and meet at right angles, and you can usually get where you're going just by following your feet. <br> <br> <p>But by relying on maps, signs and Manhattan's perpendicular geography, New Yorkers have given up something important: a sense of place. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/minusbaby/36601828/" title="by minusbaby, on Flickr"> <img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/24/36601828_8b0b40fda8_m.jpg" width="181" height="240" alt="by minusbaby, on Flickr" align="left" vspace="4" hspace="4" /></a> If you can get from your starting place to your destination without knowing anything about the points in between, chances are you won't pay much attention to them. And we do hurry about town without looking up, many of us, walking by the same buildings hundreds of times without noticing what they are or even what they look like. <br> <br> <p><b>Which is a shame,</b> because New York has its own giants, heroes and monsters who left their marks and their names on the land around us. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/josepha/2841116160/" title="Historic New York County 'Tweed' Courthouse by joseph a, on Flickr"> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3094/2841116160_64570949f8_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Historic New York County 'Tweed' Courthouse by joseph a, on Flickr" align="right" vspace="4" hspace="4" /></a> If we learn their stories which are written on our streets and avenues, we'll have a much better chance of knowing where we've been, and where we're going. <br> <br> <p>To this end I offer these as the <b>New York Songlines</b>. An oral culture uses song as the most efficient way to remember and transmit large amounts of information; the Web is our technological society's closest equivalent. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/aa440/2265626219/" title="NASDAQ Times Square by aa440, on Flickr"> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2409/2265626219_61af2c1285_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="NASDAQ Times Square by aa440, on Flickr" align="left" vspace="4" hspace="4" /></a> Each Songline will follow a single pathway, whether it goes by one name or several; the streets go from river to river, while the avenues stop at 59th Street, which is my upper limit for the time being. I've long since gone beyond the parts of Manhattan with which I have any real personal knowledge, making tips from readers increasingly important. <br> <br> <p>Don't feel you need to travel in a straight line, however; at most intersections you can click on one of the arrows to turn the corner and explore a new Songline. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/wallyg/371204751/" title="NYC - West Village: 39 and 41 Commerce Street by wallyg, on Flickr"> <img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/138/371204751_3fa0f76f96_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="NYC - West Village: 39 and 41 Commerce Street by wallyg, on Flickr" align="right" vspace="4" hspace="4" /></a> Many of the addresses noted are simply the ordinary shops, restaurants and apartment buildings that you would pass if you were walking along a Manhattan street; you need not pay attention to them while looking for the exciting bits—unless you're the sort of person who has to look in every window that you pass. <br> <br> <p>New York City is constantly changing; don't be <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/imagezen/83596577/" title="West Village Remembered by Image Zen, on Flickr"> <img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/38/83596577_e01656710e_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="West Village Remembered by Image Zen, on Flickr" align="left" vspace="4" hspace="4" /></a> surprised if something mentioned here has become another ghost of Manhattan's past. But please let me know about any anachronisms you spot, as well as any New York lore you can add to the New York Songlines. <br> <br> <a href="mailto:jimnaurecaks@gmail.com">—Jim Naureckas</a> <br><br><br> <p><b>"I believe that anybody living anywhere upon the face of the globe, if they were to simply take the time and do the research, would find an incredible nest of wonders buried right where they were standing, right in their own backyard. I think that all too often, in the 21st Century, and throughout the 20th Century, we tend to spend our everyday existence walking along streets or driving along streets that we have no real understanding of, even if we see them everyday, and they just become fairly meaningless and bleak blocks of concrete, whereas, if you happen to know that such-and-such a poet was incarcerated inside an asylum upon this street or that such-and-such a murder happened here or that such-and-such a fabulous, legendary queen is buried in this vicinity: all of these little stories, it makes the places that we live much richer if we have a knowledge of these things. All of a sudden, you're not walking down mundane, dull, everyday streets anymore, you're walking down fabulous avenues full of wonderful ideas and incredible stories.<!-- It just makes living a much richer experience if we can fully appreciate the part of the world that we are living in.-->" <br>—Alan Moore, "Five Questions for Alan Moore"</b> <br><br><br> <p><b>"No matter how long you have been here, you are a New Yorker the first time you say, That used to be Munsey's, or That used to be the Tic Toc Lounge....
