Early evening scene in a hurried City on one of its busiest expressways during the rush hour; the automobiles crawl along the southbound lanes with their many red brake lights glowing because traffic ia moving sonvery slowly; a highway sign above the freeway reads "Average Travel Times: Queensboro Bridge thirty-eight minutes, Midtown Tunnel sixty minutes, Brooklyn Bridge eighty-two minutes", with the numerals illuminated with lights; for context, it takes about forty-five minutes to bicycle from here to the Brooklyn Bridge; cars are wack; a red brick public housing building stands behind the sign and rises above it toward the pink clouds of the overcast twilight sky.

Early morning scene on a quiet residential street in a waking City just as the sun rises above the bridges and buildings to the east, facing a massive stone train bridge used for the part of the busy commuter rail system that takes people upstate; even though it is Saturday, the trains are likely full of passengers coming to the City for work, but also for shopping and fun; a leafy tree in the foreground diffuses the sun's rays with the green its leaves starting to fade toward yellow; the thin veil of morning clouds hasn't quite burned away, but it is no match for the sun arriving on the scene; the yellow metal traffic lights down on the street are signaling "do not walk" with the dark, under-bridge, stone arch tunnels -- one for automobiles and two for pedestrians -- still empty at this time of day.

🍂

Early evening scene in a transformational City at a narrow greenway park that runs between the borough's busy local expressway and a body of water referred to as a river; the perspective of the scene is facing north down the length of the partially paved public park with a grassy strip down the center where a beautiful deciduous tree has already begun to shed its leaves; all the leaves are brown and the sky is gray; a distant sunset to the west casts an orange glow on a brick apartment co-op building in the background; cars speed past on the expressway -- although it is long past rush hour; it never stops.
