Title: What is your City's Nick Name?
Post by: Suga Foot on December 13, 2006, 11:04:57 AM
I don't know if there's a website that shows city's nick names?  Like Philly is the City of Brotherly Love, NY is The Big Apple, Seattle - emerald city, etc...

if not, drop your city name and it's nick name (the real nick name, not the hip hop versions)  And say the reason the city is called that. 

These are some that I know


Vancouver - Terminal City - When they built the railroads across Canada, Vancouver was the end of line, it was the "Terminal City"
Seattle - The Emerald City - All the Evergreen Trees make the city 'green' like an emerald
Portland - The Rose City - The climate in Portland is perfect for growing Roses

Cities around my area. Providence RI aka the Prov or little Italy, Attleboro MA, aka A-Town where I live currently. Pawtucket RI aka the Bucket because of its high ratio of scummy areas. Central Falls, RI aka Crystal City aka little columbia, you do the math on that one. Brockton, Ma aka Broke-town. These are all within a 15 mile radius of me.

City of Angels-
It's the literal meaning of the name. All of the cities in the region were originally under the rule of the king of Spain.
