Only in NYC

Only in NYC the West Village.

At first, we guessed the use was for securing a bicycle or something similar.  

Then, we remembered we were in the West Village where people know how to have all sorts of fun--whether in private or public.  

So, we went on our way--two out-of-towners wondering about life in the big city.
