“Welcome to Fear City: A Survival Guide for Visitors to the City of New York” was a notorious pamphlet distributed by the New York Police Department in the 70s, warning tourists and residents alike about the dangers of the crime-ridden city. It featured a skull and crossbones, setting a tone of caution and trepidation that mirrored the gritty reality of the time.
Despite the negative connotations, this chapter in the city’s history played a significant role in shaping its resilience and eventual transformation. Today, Fear City memorabilia serve as a reminder of New York City’s ability to overcome adversity and reinvent itself.
