Mapping a street involves collecting stories from parallel times, meeting different people, walking and eating. Beginning with the 2nd Circle, aka the Panadol, aka, Nahla's father's sculpture, the walk will explore the multiple cultures, foods and interventions of the street nicknamed "Manila Street". Through this experience, the aim is to piece together the fragments of a neighborhood that has been a beacon for migrating communities.
