A Week in New York, Walking Neighbourhoods

Notes from a research trip that turned into a lesson in seeing a city slowly.

I went to New York with a list of buildings to see. I came home with a notebook full of observations about light, noise, commutes and corner shops.

Travel, for me, has become a way of learning markets with my feet.
