Don't laugh. But I saw Barry Manilow not too long after 9/11, and he dedicated 'New York City Rhythm' to the audience and to NYC, and got a big cheer. Of course, Lou Reed's 'Take a Walk on The Wild Side' is a depiction of a seedier, edgier, long-gone New York City. And here are two ancient disco nuggets:
'Native New Yorker' by Odyssey
and
'I Love America' by Patrick Juvet (which is about a European coming to NYC, (among other places) presumably to go dance in the discos)
