I've been to New York - I love the city. It's definitely on my list of places I'd be perfectly happy to live long-term.
As to the article - unfortunately, I can't read it as it's been archived and I don't have a paid subscription.
That said, it'd make sense that New York would become a sort of haven for many endangered languages. My family is actually tied into that a bit. My grandfather's family came from an Aramaic-speaking region, so they were all fluent in Arabic and Aramaic when they came to America and settled in New York City. Unfortunately, nobody thought to pass the language on. stressed

Yeah NYC! heart I've lived here for most of my life, even though originally I was born in Alabama...lol
Queens is the most diverse place for languages? Really? xD Didn't know that, even though I live here. I know that most of the kids in my school only know english. And most of the schools can only afford to offer around 3 language classes.
I thought that most languages would survive here though, since most chinese speakers stay in China town, there's even a Korea town, a Japanese neighborhood, a czech and romanian and even a Greek neighborhood. My neighborhood is mostly Russian, romanian, Chinese and Japanese. 'u'
