Just short of Broadway, he turns down a narrow street flanked by three-story 
brick row houses. Various small and mid-size autos line the curbs. Streetlights 
take the form of antique lanterns set on poles. Most of the houses contain 
ground-level shops. Some also have shops one story down, with stairs descending 
from the sidewalk. A small crowd of people stands around on the walk in front of 
one place, a cafe or coffee shop. Raman catches a few notes of what sounds like 
a flute. Just past mid-block, he slows the chopper almost to a halt, then rolls 
it between a pair of parked cars, and lowers the Harley’s stand.
