The City

Mons live in New York, the real one, across four districts. Each has its own skyline, its own corners and its own legends.

  • One World Trade Center, a tapering blue glass tower with a spire, seen from the street against a clear sky

    Downtown

    Supertalls and spires packed down to the water.

  • The Chrysler Building's stainless steel crown of stacked arches and triangular windows, rising to its spire against a blue sky

    Midtown

    Deco crowns and a water tank on every other roof.

  • A long four-storey run of brownstone rowhouses with cornices and stoops on Lenox Avenue under a blue sky

    Harlem

    Brownstone stoops, the projects and the towers behind them.

  • Mega City

    The New York the other three grow into.

Who shares the streets

Two kinds of neighbors, and the handheld that keeps them talking.

  • Callers

    People who bond with a Mon through the H-Lynk. A Mon chooses a Caller back, and nobody owns anyone.

  • Hood Mons

    Mons with no Caller, living free on the same streets as you. Hood means free-living, not hostile.

  • The H-Lynk

    The handheld that keeps a Caller and a Mon in touch. It helps with care and doesn't own anyone.
