These stylized figures represent persons real and imagined in and around Tompkins Square Park, the most  interesting piece of urban green in the city in the 80s. Two young men on bicycles waited on St Mark's Place for the light to change, and I overheard a bit of their talk... The late August night was hot and  steamy. The girls they were watching noticed them. One guy to the other: "Should we follow them?" His friend replied "That's what we're down here for." The light changed everyone moved toward the night's end.
