About Us

WE LOVE STORIES!

Stories connect people, help us form bonds in the most unexpected ways, and, let’s be honest, they’re just awesome. And what better place to collect stories than from residents of the #1 city in the country? New York City is bursting with energy, diversity, and unforgettable experiences. We wanted to hear directly from New Yorkers, on every kind of topic. Some stories reflect major news events, while others are as lighthearted as a funny text message a friend received.

Our goal is to be 100% raw and real, the way only New Yorkers know how. While we love hearing stories about excitement, fun, love, and success, we also recognize that not every New Yorker has the same experience. Some have very different perspectives on the city, and their voices are just as valuable. We hope you enjoy New York Stories, and that it lives up to your expectations. We certainly find these stories and opinions as fascinating as the people who share them.

WHAT WE DO

New York Stories is a media and news platform that shares the personal stories, thoughts, and unfiltered opinions of New Yorkers on a wide range of topics. Some stories are short; others are long. Some are positive; others highlight challenges or negative experiences. But every story comes from a current or former New Yorker, and every one of them matters.
