He needs a guidebook, too
September 4, 2012Midtown in August
August 8, 2012
In August, the people on the street are a mix of natives getting lunch or coffee and tourists shopping and taking in a sight or two. There’s no measurement of culture consumed to justify expenditures, but maybe there should be: two hours in a museum equals a piece of clothing; three hours on the Circle Line equals a pair of shoes. If rain starts coming down during an outdoor activity…JACKPOT! Spend even more on the shoes!

The second-floor view from this landmark building is nicer than the clothes for sale and more enduring. Open 10 AM to 9 PM most days, 5th Avenue and 43rd Street.

Warmish weather and no rain meant huge crowds in midtown over Spring Break. School is back in session Monday. Disgruntled office workers will own the sidewalks again.

The cops are part of the scenery in Times Square. When they are not chasing criminals and keeping the peace, police officers will gladly pose for a picture.
Summer couple in October

I couldn’t have invented this couple – they are just right for an overly warm day in October, and perfectly in contrast to the office workers crowding the sidewalk.

A.k.a., the mini grate-walker. The summer is unofficially over so now we’ll get ready for the fall tourists in NYC. They are like the summer tourists but wear more clothing and often have umbrellas handy.
Where ya from?

The weekend was brutal, waiting for the bad weather. I am ready for the work week, tourists, lousy office coffee, and midtown in general, and I’m serious.
