‘Vivian Maier (1926 – 2024) was an American amateur street photographer who worked for about forty years as a nanny in Chicago. During those years she took about 100,000 photographs, primarily of people and cityscapes most often in Chicago, although she traveled and photographed worldwide.

Wonderful!
I think you could be running Vivian Maier pjotos for a long, long time.
oops, photos.
new york has its share of homely people…notice the rich from the poor…and them ugly furs…
pictures where shot primarily in Chicago with only a few images in New York.
On the contrary, street signs, traffic lights, light poles, background shots of Riverside Drive, Bryant Park, etc., convince me these are all from Manhattan. #19 is repeated, however.
My mother had one of those furs with the fox heads on it.
