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’m surprised the city hasn’t torn it down and sold it for metal scrap what with the sinking economy
While I’m thinking about it, Ive never seen a city with so many of these uprights on city streets. Don’t people drive into them all the time?
I like the truck with the “I ♥ big cans” :)
