Attempting to get to Grand Central Terminal from 13th and Washington, I went down into the A C F line thinking it would get me there.
As I was going down the stairs onto the uptown train platform, I could not help but notice an amazing little bronze sculpture sitting on the high beams. Of course I immediately begun photographing. Then at the bottom of the steps I saw a train guide and I asked him how long the little sculpture had bee there?
"It must be very old", I said. "No!" he replied, 10 or 15 years. They are all over this station. Look around you, they are everywhere."
I begun to photograph...
