STOP
Crossing Eight Avenue at 34th Street on the way to Penn Station. It was past 10 PM, but the construction site on the corner was lit with those brighter-than-the-sun lights, and the 10-block walk from the Theater District through Times Square was an obstacle course through a raucous human circus. "Keep walking and don't make eye contact" was always the advice of my father, who spent 25 years as a police officer in this area. It is still very good advice. New York City-- June 17, 2022
