Day 46
Old Bloomingdale’s ad

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!
Okay, I can’t see the ad. Where’s it at?
Painted on the wall, next to the Beardslee sign at top center.
the faided paint on the brick surface.
Thanks. Wow, that is so hard to see! I had to go to flickr to see this closer up and even then it’s hard to see. I thought it was just different color bricks or something not writing.
If anybody is interested … in a hobby called Waymarking (sort of like Geocaching without the caches) these are called Ghost Signs … quite often then are waymark destinations.
