Manhattan

Manhattan is the first unlockable level in Tony Hawk's Underground, and second level after New Jersey. In the story mode of Tony Hawk's Underground, you and Eric Sparrow escape to Manhattan from New Jersey because of the drug dealers. The drug dealers were a threat and they had to escape. They also thwarted revenge on Eric Sparrow because Eric burned their car.

Manhattan is based on the New York borough of Manhattan, located in New York, United States of America.

JP Building
The JP building contains lots of rails and quarter pipes, which is good for practising lip tricks, grinds, flips and grabs. There is also a lot of flatland space as well, so you can also practise Freestyle tricks such as the Anti Casper.

In Career Mode, you are required to do a New York Nut Buster inside the building on Too Easy/Beginner difficulty, or do a New York Nut Buster out the window of a building on Normal/Sick mode.

The Banks
The Banks is located right across the JP building. This is the place where custom skater first encounters a filmer in story mode and you later get him to film you doing a New York Nut Buster inside the JP building.

There is a basketball court and a set of parked police and taxi cars located in The Banks.
