A sidewalk tribute to New York City

but a photo tribute to new york city featuring the lyrics of the famous song - posted on a construction fence...

Start spreading the news,
I'm leaving today,
I want to be a part of it - New York, New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it
New York, New York
I want to wake up in a city that doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill - top of the heap
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you - New York, New York
New York, New York
I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm "A Number 1," top of the list, king of the hill
"A Number 1"
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'm gonna make a brand new start of it
In old New York
And if I can make it there
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you
New York, New York

Amazing. If you turn just off Knez Mihailova (the pedestrian street), there are two (I think) cafes with outdoor seating areas. Both look directly at the pictures on the wall you photographed. A couple of weeks ago I was having coffee there, looking at the wall, then went over and spent some time examining the photos.
Next time you're in town, send me an e-mail. I'll buy you a beer.
sweet photo
