The Mission of the Manhattan Institute is
to develop and disseminate new ideas that
foster greater economic choice and
individual responsibility.

 

“A constant presence in the life of the city, weekly lunches, weekly discussions, panel debates and such, the Manhattan Institute is always doing something and spreading its message.”
