I was wondering where my comment went.  I must have posted it to the link below this but I don't really know how that could have happened.  I've really been screwing up a lot more than usual lately.<br />

      <![CDATA[Another fine addition to the franchises and chains that have come to characterize Broadway. In this photo we see Liberty Tax (3,500 offices), Rite Aid (4,701 stores), Subway (34,000 stores). I know, I know, little unique local retailers still survive here and there with the rents they get charged on this street. I just need some more coffee.<br />

(P.S. Kind of sweet that you've managed in a week to post photos from Spain and now from kitty corner to your apartment building.)<br />
