Why do people omit "the," when talking about a geographically-defined neighborhood?
Post Body
Saying "the gym is in Chelsea," or "there's a custom hat guy in Flushing," those are just words by themselves. But I feel like I have increasingly seen people say "I live in Upper West Side," or "going on a date in East Village." It feels not very intuitive to me? Is this a new phenomenon or do I just hang out in a small bubble?
