This could have been a beautiful day of pure absurdity, biking across Brooklyn just to walk the missing 20ish feet of a single block. But I ruined it by deciding to walk some bonus park and public housing paths while I was in the area. Oh well, what can I say? I'm a weak man and I couldn't resist their sweet siren call.
Pictured above is the short stretch of Vandalia Avenue that was holding me back from having walked all of Brooklyn. The final non-Staten Island steps of this journey have now been taken.
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!
