"East Side, West Side, all around the town ...
We tripped the light fantastic on
the sidewalks of New York."
~ "The Sidewalks of New York"

~ This wonderful Tin Pan Alley tune
was a popular song about New York City
in the 1890s.
This painterly pigeon steps spritely
in spring on an April day on the
sidewalks of New York City.
