Owl Staff travelled to New York City for the ProCon 25 Convention sponsored by the College Media Association. Check out the photos below for a closer look at life around The Big Apple.
Between the morning commuters, clueless tourists, coffee-goers and costumed performers lies a bustling city in which you can become completely engrossed by simply being present and observing.
There is no shortage of restaurants, bakeries, food carts, and the famous $1 pizza slice across Manhattan, making for a unique experience with seemingly endless food options.
Each street acts as a display of architecture and culture that never repeats itself twice, with every road feeling like a bridge to a different city entirely.
With a food cart or two on seemingly every corner, you are never more than a few steps away from a hot, convenient, and cheap meal.
Times Square shines just as brightly during the night as it does in the daytime, truly making for a city that never feels asleep.
Small, almost unnoticeable notes of hope such as this one lie all across New York, waiting for someone to stumble upon them.
One man chose to spend his weekend night protesting for peace amidst a wave of thousands.
A newly-engaged couple embrace as the crowd cheers them on, making for a beautiful ending to the night.
