“Walking Men 99” by Maya Barkai

Outside our office there’s a construction site that up until today, was surrounded by your standard blue-wood boring walls. This morning however, I saw this instead:

Walking Men 99

Maya Barkai photographed the well known pedestrian traffic light “walking-men” from around the world. Ninety-nine variations are shown in full size and wrap around the 99 Church Street site (home to a future Silverstein Properties condo-hotel combo that will be the tallest residential building in downtown.)

Seems like a great way to liven up an otherwise drab scene. Berlin’s man is still may favorite. He practically has no body:
