2-Ft Incline Deemed Mountain by Manhattanite


New York – Lifelong New York City resident Peter Sisco, 47, asserts that he climbed a ‘mountain’ in Manhattan’s financial district last Sunday afternoon.

While walking the windy downtown streets in search of a hot dog stand before boarding the Staten Island Ferry, Sisco approached a foot of 2-inch incline in the road at broad Street and Exchange Place.

“I’ve never seen a mountain, but I’ve heard lots about them and this is sort of like what was described,” Sisco said.

The man went on to say that he needed to stop at the halfway point to rest and swore to a noticeable increase in air pressure.

Says Sisco’s mother, “Our boy doesn’t get out much.”
