NEW YORK CITY - October



Monday – Garden in Transit. The flowers on this and other taxis were hand-painted by more than 23,000 children and adults throughout NYC as part of an art, education and creative therapy project. The temporary exhibition celebrates the 100th anniversary of the metered taxicab.


Detail. The TV screen inside some of the newer taxicabs. Some taxi cabs went on strike again today, for the second time in a month, to protest about the new GPS and credit card systems to be installed in them. The Taxi Workers contend it as both an invasion of privacy, and a pay cut due to the transaction fee of credit cards.
