Pat Gets Dual Manhattan-Brooklyn Citizenship

Written by Pat's Papers | Tuesday, 25 September 2012 8:39 AM

Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer put me to the test last night—the trivia test, that is—at an event last night.

Last month, Brooklyn Borough president Marty Markowitz awarded me official Brooklyn citizenship at a similar event. Though I struggled with Stringer’s question about whether Marble Hill was part of Manhattan or the Bronx,  I ended up with three correct answers out of five questions—enough to preserve my honorary status as a Manhattanite.
