In real life 02 - March 27th - Times Square

-->
Every real city and even the smallest town must have at least one central space functioning as a sort of living room, a place to meet and to hang out. When visiting even the smallest village I have to move on until I've reached this "heart" of the community. To get the feeling I definitely arrived in NYC I decided to go to Times Square since this was the place where sailors went after anchoring the New York harbor.
Now a days the site has changed drastically after Giuliani became major and swiped the streets. The prostitutes that once served the sailors and soldiers have changed their wardrobe. Mini skirts are traded for cartoon figure outfits and their customers are now of minor age while Disney became their pimp. Only their strong taste for the green and an occasional gesture tell who's behind this masquerade. Like in this picture where Kitty is not meowing "Hello" but is giving me the finger for taking pictures without tipping, which I finally did after all.
