Recently Iāve been reading Invisible Cities, a book that presents ideas about all of the little traits and characteristics that combine together to give a city its identity.Ā Ā
It got my friend and me thinking about some of the hidden quirks weāve noticed around Columbus - and we came to the realization that a vast number of bars south of 5th Ave offer free popcorn, while almost no bars north of 5th do?!?
There is a Great Popcorn Divide in my town and I had no idea until now.Ā Ā Even though this knowledge doesnāt amount to much, it still feels like a fun piece of information that contributes to the identity and experience of living here.
Iām also really curious to know if there are some āinvisible citiesā that you all have noticed around where you live
how did they end up there, where were they before, do they like it, do they want to go somewhere else, what it's like over there, are the drivers awful (drivers are awful everywhere and that's always fun to bitch about) is it walkable etc. There's so much to a city and people always have niche recs or fun stories so it's fun to ask
ālos angeles, the windy cityā
āportland, the big appleā
āsacramento, the city that never sleepsā
stupidest thing that makes me giggle every time
