To save everyone else the work, I've located the original. It's from Adobe Stock, by someone known only as "dantada", and tagged 2006, which is presumably the year when it was taken.

Amusingly, the stock image is a fair way down the #NewYorkPost article. The generated montage has skipped over some images of already pedestrianized school roads, 14th Street buses, and suchlike.

This is tomorrow. I continue to be extremely jealous of NYC. 😆
"An upcoming #educational event in #Manhattan aims to grapple with the foundations of #Jewish #history, following renewed interest after the #Hamas-led terrorist attacks on #Oct7, 2023.
The daylong s#ymposium, titled “The Past, Present and Future of #JewishHistory” and hosted by the Center for Jewish History in #NewYorkCity on Nov. 2, will gather 20 leading #historians to examine some of the field’s most pressing questions. The event, organized by the Center’s Jewish Public History Forum, features five sessions exploring fundamental themes, from the significance of #antisemitism in Jewish history to the relationship between #Israeli and #Diaspora narratives."
