They're few and far between in New York.
Day 13
An alley!
January 12th, 2012
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!
Kinda like Chicago.
So I live in the country and we don’t have any alley’s. Are those garages or storage units?
Those are garages. My cousin’s house in Woodside has an alley like this, two in fact, at the back and side of her house.
I love those little false front garages – I guess they let the snow slide right down on your head? Alleys are so common here in LA – must be a space thing.
