Stroll
Allenby Street, Tel-Aviv, Israel
View Original Description
Allenby, like many streets leading in the direction of a municipal bus station, has something not quite right about it. The street exudes its own humid breath, its faded buildings sweating like pledges at a Southern fraternity. When the sun goes down, darkened nightclubs with names like Temptation and Epiphany entice the passersby. Russian pensioners, some sporting the beguilingly popular "purple perm," sing and play the accordion for shekels. Hasids try to snare male Jews with the promise of phylacteries.
