Life in the streets. Documenting the culture of intersections.

Street narratives, public service announcements, ideologies, and other stories from the asphalt.

Do you feel strongly about an intersection? Please share your street story!

Snap some photos or a quick video with your digital camera. Record an audio file, write a haiku, paint a picture.

Remember, signalling does not give you the right-of-way. You must make sure the way is clear.
