8th annual readers' choice poll lauds perennial favorites, boosts new localesPosted by Admin at May 2, 2005 01:16 PMBy the Staff of AmericanStyle Magazine
No doubt about it: the Big Apple is hard to beat.
For the fifth time in the eight years of AmericanStyle magazine’s Top 25 Arts Destinations readers poll, New York has rocketed to the top of the list. And why not? It’s classy, it’s cultured, it’s street-smart, and it’s got enough creative bling to entice traveling arts enthusiasts into its five boroughs over and over and over again.
Big, brawny Chicago maintains its No. 2 slot again this year, boosted in part by the excitement the Windy City has generated with the opening of Millennium Park, a $475 million extravaganza next to The Art Institute of Chicago and a hop, skip and street crossing away from the lakefront. >Link
