West 88th Street
Storm Drain
There is a storm drain at the bottom of the valley
on West Drive near West 88th Street, as shown in the middle of this
picture. Why is this commonplace object accorded the status of a
landmark? Because it is exactly one mile from the Daniel Webster
Statue (at West 72nd Street) to here, and this is how you can get
a timed mile run during a workout.
