James AllanCityXcape (pronounced cityscape), began in New York City. The idea sparked when its founder James felt trapped in a world of routine and corporatism. Desperately needing a way out, James began to urban explore.
After scouting a few neighborhoods, he found gem locations that people overlooked. These secret spots were pockets of fresh air. Places where you can be yourself and feel a sense of community. As James found more and more secret spots, he began to bring friends.
People liked the experience so much that they also began scouting. This grew into a habit where people share secret spots with each other to keep life fresh and anew- CityXcape.
