There's always a certain friction when visiting New York. Traffic, cost and time consumption for the usual & routine. But, plenty of delights as well. It's always fascinating to chat with locals and visitors alike. Pre Uber (a mystery later solved), I often dialed Dial7 for a car.
I always enjoyed watching the visuals above and below ground.
The bartender went on and on about a concert later that evening. Massive Attack. Ah, I knew it and enjoyed their music.
Little did I know and much like my Uber - who made that happen - mystery, that the Banksy question would later be solved and shared. Hidden in plain sight!
