Humans of Times Square
March 29, 2015
I really like New York; it’s my first time here [so] it was overwhelming for me. I thought it was really amazing, all these billboards in Times Square [are] breathtaking. I came because I was going to go take a tour of Juilliard and I was supposed to try out. I’m from Houston, Texas.

It’s been relaxing. St. Patrick’s day [fell during] the past few days. We’re on Spring Break; we’re actually high school friends [from] Florida. We’re meeting up in the city.
— Vicki and Alice
I’ve been working; I work five days a week. [From] three to 10, I make deliveries, I wash dishes, but that’s what I get for not studying in school. I was brought up [okay] I wasn’t spoiled or anything. I went to Springfield High School in Jamaica, I was there [for] four years but I didn’t graduate.

We stayed on the Upper East Side, [I’m] taking the subway everywhere as well as not doing the typical touristy things.

I have been visiting the town, I saw Grand Central Station, Ellis Island [and] the Statue of Liberty. I dislike the fact that there’s a lot of traffic on the sidewalks; it’s hard to get through.
