Day 1081

Ghost town

December 15th, 2014

It seems like just about everyone in the Oakwood Beach buyout zone is taking the money and running. Rows of houses are boarded up and vacant, and the only people I saw who weren't in a car were loading up a moving truck.

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!
