Banking centre different than an ATM (9)
I believe the answer is:
manhattan
'banking centre' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'different than an atm' is the wordplay.
'different' indicates anagramming the letters (letters placed in a different order).
'than'+'an'+'atm'='thananatm'
'thananatm' with letters rearranged gives 'MANHATTAN'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for manhattan that I've seen before include "One of the five boroughs of New York City" , "Island of New York - cocktail" , "Cocktail of whiskey and sweet vermouth" , "area of New York City" , "Vermouth and whiskey, with a dash of bitters" .)
