Description:Excerpt from A Loiterer in New York Discoveries Made by a Rambler, Through Obvious Yet Unsought, Highways and Byways To a traveller the thought of loitering in a great city is more suggestive of the celebrated haunts abroad than of New York. It conjures visions of Rome, of Venice, of Florence, where historical relics and works of art are found at every turn. It would recall, perhaps, rambles in the streets and boulevards of Paris and the innocent joys of the Bouquineur on the Quais; the misty mornings, the quiet afternoons, and evening strolls on the banks of the Seine. It would perhaps revive the souvenir of the delightful feeling of peaceful comfort and "nearness" to the Past, so readily enjoyed in the sombre byways and the gay and bustling highways of London. Things are life-size abroad and supremely human too. There one is encouraged to dream and to think, and loitering is an art! With these thoughts in mind it seems difficult, at first glance, to sec how one could really loiter here. The consciousness of one's self is easily lost in the presence of our superhuman buildings. The sky-line, however grand, is far away, and a profound feeling of awe replaces that of intimacy and charm.
