Vast Sidewalk

Lodz, Poland

September Scavenger Hunt #22 - Sidewalk

SIDEWALK is the world I will always remember. The story goes back to my first visit to the US, as a student, who already knew English very well. I was surprised there was no place for pedestrians along the streets in American towns. I asked my American friend "why you don't have pavements over here?" and she did not understand what I'm talking about... When I explained, she shouted "ah, the sidewalks!!!"
You know, I was taught British English at school in Poland :)

Beautifully designed plaza and a great PoV to catch the angles. V

A huge sidewalk area! ....I wonder if cars drive on this from time-to-time. We see that a lot in France! V

A great space for walking, and a very effective capture of it. We do need more places like this in the States. V.

That's one big sidewalk. We call sidewalks 'footpaths' here.

I'm with you, I wish our cities had more plazas, town squares and so on that are more pedestrian friendly.
