miniature set of shiny red shoes swinging back and
forth underneath the counter at the diner. A
little girl had been sitting atop the red stool
since I had arrived, just sitting watching the
cook flip pancakes all morning long with a mature

blueberries, some with chocolate, some just plain

Happiness by Will Ferguson Grand Avenue cuts
through the very heart of the city, from 71 st

although it is eight lanes wide, with a treed
boulevard running down the middle, the Avenue
feels claustrophobic and narrow. Rising up in
straight verticals, and flanking either side, are
Grand Avenues imposing Edwardian buildings, their
facades creating two continuous walls. Many of
