2) Manhattan is 13 miles and some change (i don't have the exact figure)
long, from the Battery to Inwood (tip to tip). But Broadway does not travel
in a straight line the length of Manhattan, so I'm reluctant to say that
Broadway's length is equal to Manhattan's length. Be that as it may,
Broadway is at least 13 miles long.
