I’m a little over 6 months into my quest to walk or bike every block on the island of Manhattan in a year, and I walked some of these blocks a couple of nights ago. I chuckled at the pic of the 134th Street dead end — so far, that’s the only block that I’ve “noped.”

Cool! I bet you are glad summer is winding down! Yeah, I think avoiding dark and hidden dead ends at nighttime is a sound decision.

Always fascinating, Rob. I had to go back and enjoy the Malba piece again, too. That Brutalist house is so hideous it gives the Brutalist movement a bad name. Just my two cents...HA!

Thanks Laurie! I need to revisit that house. Hopefully they installed some blinds in the bathroom!

Love how some old buildings never go away, they just get a new look.
