New York: The strange fashion, bad roads and the hotel of the future
• New York: a strange fashion, bad roads and the hotel of the future
Today safely reached Moscow. Week in the United States took place, as the song goes, as if it had never been. Good city, New York, San Francisco, but still better. Let's take a walk.
Let's start with the fashion. How do you like it? I would be a bit surprised if my woman appeared in front of me in a mantle.
The Chinese luxury
I bought my wife boots
Plain showcase, nothing special. We have long been champions of morality would be banned.
A very unusual store of Apple in the central station in New York. Just standing on the balcony tables with goods and everything.
Station - a monument of architecture, so that spoil its interior signs, storefronts, and even more so here it is impossible to fence shops.
Schenoooooochki!
There is a job - to walk their dogs.
In America, a very beautiful technique. Here, for example, sweeper. Please note that the single cab.
And of course, the famous American trucks in chrome
And how you this garbage?
Fire
Police put up a post
In New York, the bad roads.
Many wonder why New York ... a shattered which bad roads, the sewers are constantly steaming, repair everywhere ... I have already said that all the city's infrastructure is very old. All this is already a lot of years. Almost all construction in New York, conducted prior to the Great Depression. The last construction boom of the American road network came in the 60s, but since then almost not built any bridges or new roads. Well, the New York unions interfere to bring all this stuff in order.
You can not just take, to block out and change the asphalt. It is necessary to put the 3 special people who will keep the sign, it is necessary that all the road work time a tray of coffee and donuts and to observe others of their right to a comfortable work. As a result, a roll out by the City Hall, the roads are easy to do.
When the pit is embedded, the company carrying out the work, puts on his asphalt label.
Then the mayor's office could find out who was doing what the patch and make a complaint, if the work was carried out poorly. Good practice. Such labels in New York very much.
Stop pushing off the sidewalk into the roadway.
In New York City began to appear column with advertising, which must distribute high speed internet. Standing every 50 meters in Manhattan. They do not work.
Back in New York in no hurry to remove the scaffolding.
may be so for years
Garbage piled on the sidewalk, where it will be picked up at night scavengers.
The protection of hydrants so that no one would sit
One of the nights spent at the CitizenM. In the photo riser reception. We noticed that no one is there? Yes, now at the hotel check-in is carried out by the guest themselves. Indicates the number of the reservation, insert a credit card for payment, then choose the number (the system offers a choice available), and you give the key card! Just like the self check at the airport. Check out and payment of the final accounts is similar. I think in a few years most of the hotels switch to such a system.
The room was, frankly, a tight fit! But it is very cool that lying on a bed, you can look at the panorama of New York City!
