Day 1006

Modern-Tech Cleaners

October 1st, 2014

A 2005 NY Times article about the explosion of a hot-water tank at this laundry plant said that the workers here "wash roughly 30,000 pounds of linens and uniforms for several Manhattan hotels every day".

I'm walking every street in New York City.

This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
