Comparing Mainhatten and Manhatten

Task 3:

Compare "Mainhatten" with the Financial District of Manhatten (Differences, Similarities) and write a text about it.

Mainhatten and Manhatten

I have never heard the name "Mainhatten" up to now but I think there are many
similarities between our Mainhatten and the Manhatten in the Financial District in New York. Mainhatten is something like our Financial District in germany because Frankfurt in our Mainhatten is also called "City of Banks". We´ve got al lot of banks like the City bank or the European Central Bank. Mainhatten is not so big as the Manhattan in New York but both of them have the same task. Mainhattan has also a sculpture, a bear and and bull too, it stands near the stock exchange. At all Mainhatten and Mannhatten are nearly the same with the same tasks and important things but it gives a few differences between them.

Do you know why it is called "Manhatten", because "Mainhatten" has his name because of the river "Main"??
