I made this photograph while on a freelance assignment last week at NASDAQ for Marine Money. It was the first time I was in Times Square since portions of Broadway were shut down to vehicular traffic.
There was an interesting profile of Janette Sadik-Khan, the city’s Transportation commissioner, in New York Magazine recently, which explains the project in greater detail. It’s worth a look.
