Two men had been selling fruit from the side of a truck when a police officer walked towards them. There was a sign indicating there was no parking beyond 4pm and the policeman looked at his watch, looked at the fruit vendors and jerked a thumb. The fruiterers gave the officer a filthy look, but immediately closed the side of the truck and drove off. It was far from a new vehicle and rumbled as it moved off; the rumbling echoing the fruiterers’ discontent at having their day ended. Ironically Union Square in 1976 became the site of a year-round Greenmarket where stalls of fruit, vegetables and artisan foods from farms and niche producers are set up to sell to the public.   Currently there are no reviews for this product.
