I think it was near Times Square, to be honest.

I’m a hick and had no clue where I was.

I stood at the bottom of the WTC and didn’t even know what it was.

I walked through Central Park at 3 am carrying an expensive camera while he carried the pizza we’d gone out for, only to find we didn’t have enough money for a cab back to the apartment.

Would’ve been 16 blocks unless we took he shortcut through the park so we did.

While we were debating our route back, a Cadillac came flying up the street, the wrong way and did a 90 degree turn into the alley beside the pizza parlor.
There was a loud crash and a hub cap came rolling out into the street in front of us.
Two cops in a cruiser nearby watched it clatter to a stop, shrugged and went back to their food.

That was when we decided to start walking.

Lol.

That was brave! I would never do that!

Hexta and Island is relatively safe and I wouldn’t walk anywhere at 3:00 a.m. :-)

Ironically we could when we were 14 or 15 without worrying. Times have changed.
