These days, New York likes to think of itself as the center of the universe. For the majority of the 19th century, though, Boston was where it was at. Boston was where the world got its style, intellectual output, colleges, obnoxious socialites, and slang words (such as "OK"!).
Boston today is a decent city. It's a little friendlier than New York, but it's also shrinking. Maybe in a 100 years it will be like Philadelphia. Did I mention that Philadelphia was the center of the universe in the 18th century?
