Secret NYC 2

Sidewalk Subway Map

Situated on the Greene Street you will find an 87-foot patch of pavement with a map of the subway carved into the ground. This piece titled, “Subway Map Floating on a NYC Sidewalk”, was created by Belgian artist Francoise Schein, and is composed of concrete rod along with LED lights for each subway stop.

Maiden Lane Sidewalk Clock

If you happen to be strolling the streets of downtown Manhattan, make your way over to Maiden Lane and Broadway. Here, you will find a bronze clock embedded in the sidewalk that has been ticking away for over a century and New Yorkers unseeingly pass over it. Designed by jeweler William Barthman in 1896, the clock was originally intended to draw customers into his jewelry store on Maiden Lane.
