ABSTRACT

It was November eighteenth,

at a quarter of ten in the

evening, and I was walking

south on Central Park West.

My idea was to take an IND

train down to West Fourth

Street and transfer to a D

train and take it into

Brooklyn, where I live. I'm

not very familiar with the

IND line, so at about

Ninety-third or Ninety-second

[Street], I walked down into

what I thought was an

entrance for the IND, and I

discovered that it was an exit

only. So I backed out,

and I continued south until I

got to Eighty-seventh [Street]

and Central Park West. I saw

another subway, what I thought

again was an entrance, and

walked down near the bottom.
