Neptune

Bethesda Terrace & Fountain, Central Park

📍 There's almost always something going on here — buskers taking advantage of the tunnel's acoustics, wedding shoots, proposals. A fitting, watery place to end, at a modest 1.1 inches across.

At true scale: 1.1 in (2.7 cm) across

About this place

An inch of Neptune, a mile and a half from a 30-inch clock. Everything between here and Grand Central is empty space at this scale — and the emptiness is the honest part.
