nyc

14. january

nyc is a misnomer for this entry; its simply the first time ive ever been downtown. the pictures here are of the financial district and times square, two places that seemed like a good starting point. the city is fantastic though, and im sure there will be many more pictures to come.



ive wanted to see this brige for a long long time



and here is a really crappy picture of it



i took the holland to get from newark to the port authority bus terminal, from there you get on the #1 toward the bronx and get off on 116th.



ring any bells?



its unreal how expensive everything is right around here



where they used to be...
its quite a moving sight in real life.



GW



this guy signed the declaration on independence, now he is buried by trinity church a block from wall st. and two blocks from the wtc site



42nd street right by Times Square



parking laws in nyc, arguably worse than in berkeley



i was here



this should look more familiar is there is a big shiny ball on top of that big shiny building



everywhere else they run you over in this city. people j-walk just as much as they do in berkeley, but they run when the cars come.



i was also here



some of dozens of bilboards on times square



later i ate a big mac here; it only seemed appropriate
