Below is (almost) the same view from September of 2004. Unfortunately, I was about 20 feet too far to the north when I took it.
My favorite movie
This reminds of The Godfather Part 2, street scenes with Robert De Niro. Vito Corleone meets the Black Hand.
White Wing
Right in the middle of the pic is a New York Department of Sanitation street sweeper -- they were called called "White Wings". The first mechanical street sweeper built by Elgin Sweeper Co. was called the White Wing in honor of these gentlemen.

I can't help but think of the Dr. Seuss book about Mulberry Street. It almost seems possible in this crowded scene.
Horse Apples
Free! (Just have to sweep them up yourself.)
