New YorkMapDecember 15–16, 2013 Christmas is around the corner, and there are Christmas tree lots everywhere. No preaching about protecting the forests here—they sell real, fragrant trees, not plastic Chinese imitations.”  The snow cleaners don’t do a very good job.  A more than strange invention: a police car with an extendable observation booth.  While Moscow is issuing decrees stating that all taxis must be yellow, New York, which originally invented using yellow to identify cars for hire, is moving on. Taxis from Brooklyn are now painted green to differentiate them from Manhattan taxis. Accordingly, green taxis aren’t allowed to pick up passengers in Manhattan—they can only drop them off there.  |
