What is New York's best borough? Today: The case for the Bronx | Timeout New York

Timeout New York is running a 'Battle of the Boroughs' and on Friday they published their case for the Bronx.  Although it's all positive, and we're in agreement with what was said, we also think it was a little underwhelming.  Each piece will feature 5 reasons as to why the said borough is the best in NYC;  here's our 5:

  1. Hip Hop was invented in the South Bronx
  2. American powerhouse designers Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein are Bronxites
  3. Home to the most storied sports franchise in history- The New York Yankees
  4. Greenest Borough- Largest Park in NYC (Pelham Bay Park)
  5. Most Art Deco apartments in NYC, 2nd to Miami

For our detailed case for the Bronx check out our piece from a few months ago 'Why the Bronx is far from Average'. 

What would your top 5 reasons be?
