THE LOCAL PERSONALITIES, FOOD, AND CULTURE UNIQUE TO NYC 


NYC Life – We’ll Get You Through It  

NYC Life, the City of New York’s lifestyle channel, will introduce its new lineup of programming this March. The lineup features new series and returning favorites – from Neighborhood Slice, a half hour show revealing the best of each neighborhood through the eyes of the City’s most seasoned locals, to a cooking show that this season explores the journey of local food, from fishing to the frying pan, with the Emmy Award-winning Frankie Cooks. Also a part of the new season is NYC Catalyst, a short video series dedicated to special New Yorkers who are triggering change in their communities. NYC Life, part of the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, is available in the New York tri-state area on broadcast, cable, and satellite channels. NYC Media recently received 15 nominations from the 2015 New York Emmy Awards, which honor distinction in television.

“NYC Life offers viewers a unique perspective about life in New York City with a mix of entertaining programming,” said Commissioner Cynthia López, Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment. “Our shows provide insights into the people, landmarks, and cuisine that can only be found in New York.
