Close-up of those two contrasting signs:
The subway! I measured it as being three people shoulder-to-shoulder in width:
I just really enjoyed this, every time:
The corner of 73rd and Lexington:
I took a few photos of the apartments in this area, as that's probably where Sam lives (I don't know why she would walk 5 blocks to take a taxi...)
The Strand Bookstore in the Village (Greenwich Village, that is):
Look at that gum on the ground!I just thought it was interesting that on one side of the book are these old books (intellectualism! quickly becoming a thing of the past!), and reflected are cars (industry! machines!), and a sign for Ugg boots (materialism!), and in the upper right hand corner you can see a building (urbanization!):
Inside the strand bookstore (this struck me as very dramatic):
Across the street (and there is no Dead City Cafe in existence):
But there IS a really cool record store on another corner. I found a recording of the monologues in Ulysses, but they weren't read very well, so I went with Edith Piaf and Simon and Garfunkel records instead.
My friend took this picture, and I think it is just wonderful. Especially because Woody Allen is right in the middle.
