The City as sacred... In the very heart of the crowded,
noisy and often alienating city, see an oasis. Millions
live side by side, yet often remaining total strangers. In the
almost ceaseless noise and traffic, technological
miracles, crime, poverty, beleagured homeless, alienation,
indifference, disrespect, see an oasis, and daily celebrate.
