I stood vastly alone in the center of a massive torrent of people and chewing-gum-stained walkways. I looked up at the red brick behemoths with metallic teeth dripping freon-compressed drool onto unsuspecting charlatans. I wondered what life was like in this storm before their gentle hum breathed life into each apartment, all while the sun scorched the windows.
