8 Stop 8 of 12 on The Bloody Angle and the Golden Buddha

Columbus Park

Chinatown, New York City

A Preview

"Take in the park for a second. Old men bent over chessboards, a ring of onlookers giving unsolicited advice on every move. The clack of mahjong tiles. Somebody playing a two-stringed fiddle. Card games, tai chi in the morning, a singer working through an old Cantonese opera to whoever's on the benches. It is the calmest, most contented place in the neighborhood."
