The red arrow that shows up on some New York traffic lights to let drivers and pedestrians know that vehicles aren't permitted to turn. Considered unsafe for drivers and pedestrians alike because five seconds is hardly enough time for a driver to make a complete stop.
Why can't the DOT make those red arrow signals at least fifteen seconds long?! I hate those New York 5-second warnings!

(US ECONOMY) One of the 12 district Federal Reserve Banks. Based in New York (2nd FR district). Along with members of the Federal Reserve Board, enjoys a permanent seat on the FOMC (other district banks only get to rotate).
Main job is to regulate banks and administer monetary policy through open market operations. Former New York Fed president Tim Geithner is now Secretary of the US Treasury Department (as of early 2009).
Prior to 1928, the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was the de facto leader of the entire system. This was because of the powerful personality and connections of Benjamin Strong, a former J.P. Morgan partner.

One of the six boroughs of Toronto, hence the name "the 6ix". Located east of the borough of Old Toronto, south of the borough of North York and west of the borough of Scarborough, East York is generally considered to be 2 distinct parts. The first part is what is usually referred to as East York: the "traditional" part of the borough situated southeast of the Don River, which includes areas like O'Connor and some parts of the Danforth, and Leaside, the part situated northwest of the Don River, which includes cute boutiques and patisseries along Bayview Avenue, as well as more expensive housing. Houses are also very close to each other. East York is known for happy and hospitable people, for wonderful Christmas decorations, sense of community and a general cute vibe unmatched anywhere else in Toronto.
On a side note, East York is NOT to be confused with the Danforth. While both areas are closely related, the Danforth is part of the borough of Old Toronto, not East York. The general area can be referred to as "East York-Danforth" or just the "East Side".
Person 1: Where does she live?
Person 2: She lives in East York.
Person 1: She must love her neighbours, dress in long green jackets, wear pastel-coloured pompom hats, cute scarves, and drinks a lot of hot chocolate with whipped cream.
Typically done by raising your hand to someone while making a fist, with the exception of having only your middle finger extended. However, in some parts of the city, such as South Brooklyn or Staten Island, some of the old timers will give a New York Salute by putting the tips of their fingers to the bottom of their chin, and quickly flicking their hand forward an inch or two, always accompanied by an angry facial expression.
Hah, you see the faces of those tourists who were waving at us from the roof of that stupid sight-seeing bus when I gave them the good ‘ol New York Salute?? Yeah, that was Priceless.
When you are banging a chick and you stop for a second, pull out, and your buddy hops in. Than you run outside and wave to them from the outter window and she than realizes, it's not you in the room anymore.
I was with this beautiful broad the other night, when me and Louie pulled "the New York switcharoo" on the her.
Someone who walks really fast to get to where they need to be. Usually someone who is from or lived in New York walks this way since there are tourist everywhere and they are sloooow.
Friend 1: "What time should we start walking to get to school?"
Friend 2: "Well we have that New York walk so we can be there in 5"
