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!
I like what you are doing….have you been up to Marble Hill? As a kid I stayed with my Grandmother on Jacobus Place. Across the river was Columbia’s football stadium. Real steep hill to walk up from the IRT Subway stop at 225th. This was back in the mid 60’s. Newstand right at the steps to the subway (elevated of course at that point) and there was a remarkable deli….anyway, you know what you are doing. As for sending money? Hope you have some, I’m rather poor myself.
