Walking every street in NYC + taking a picture on each block

Back story

When I moved to NYC in 2015, I kept saying that I wanted to walk every street in every borough.I had this image in my mind that all unwalked streets are white like a blank canvas, and whenever I walk a street I turn it a different color.Well, here I am, 11+ years later, actually making this a reality. I've obviously kept tabs in my mind which streets I've walked so far but now I'm officially tracking from scratch.I'm taking a picture on each block.If you have a hot tip for a particular street or neighborhood, I'd love to hear it!Day 1: May 6, 2025
