One of Toledo's nicknames is 'Frogtown'.

    Properly known as street art.

    If you can find it to stream, there's a cool film about street art, "Exit Through the Gift Shop." It came out in 2010.

    We have a street here, Broadway, that has many beautiful murals. Here is a sample.

    Before the consolidation of Greater New York in 1898, Brooklyn (Kings County) and Manhattan (New York County) were separate cities, each with its own mayor and municipal administration.

    Seth Low, namesake of Columbia University's main library (Low Library), was the only person ever to serve as mayor of both Brooklyn and New York City.

    Brooklyn is nicknamed "City of Churches."
