It was pouring when I left my apartment in the Bronx this morning so instead of walking to the subway I jumped on a bus and only had to walk a block-and-a-half to the train station. I stayed as close as  to the buildings as possible  because the awnings keep some of the rain away. I wasn’t alone. There was a parade of us, single file,  moving down the block, as if a magnet held us close to the buildings.

A New York moment.
