Sunday 1/6/08



World Financial Center


West Midtown
A common surge drill was underway at Penn Station. A random place is selected for 20 or more squad cars. sometimes they all proceed to the locations in one herd, and sometimes they arrive sporadically, taking attendance like a bunch of elementary school boys. This morning attendance was big. The above picture is 8th Avenue from 33rd to 34th Streets, but 31st to 33rd was lined with cop cars too.

yeah, those van taxis are required to have them, since the sliding doors don't swing out. they even have a blinking light on each side when the door is open. more often than not, those lights blink while the taxi is driving because the door wasn't closed properly, and that's a hassle because the door open light looks a lot like the help me i'm being robbed light. both lights aren't taken seriously.

Kips? yeah those coppers are everywhere, and they all look starry eyed and new. And I'm not sure if I love or I hate those sofas, probably a little bit of both.
