splendor me, or the men
and women generations

to shore, countless crowds
of passengers! stand up,

These passages from Walt Whitman are carved in the hand-railing of the Fulton Ferry Landing pier.
While I was standing at the pier and looking out at Manhattan, I could still imagine, how it might have had been in early 1800. The crowd of tourists visiting the space and creating “chaos” who is going to take the best spot to take a picture. Reading the passages from Whitman
Cross from shore to shore,
Countless crowds of passengers!
We experience this everyday in the subways, or buses, where everyone is rushing to go somewhere. Whitman liked riding with ferry because it made him interact with people more.
