As the New York Times noted:

As it turned out, the demonstrators found much of their target off limits on Saturday as the city shut down sections of Wall Street near the New York Stock Exchange and Federal Hall well before their arrival.

Despite the fact that nowhere near the 20,000 that event organizers had hoped for shown up and there were nearly as many tourists gawking as there were protesters, the menagerie of protesters who congregated in Zuccotti Park did seemed somewhat upbeat, more like those attendees at a Grateful Dead concert. People seeing old friends hugged, shook hands, as though it had been ages since they’d seen each other at a previous protest or General Assembly.

Seeing that the non-event was more akin to a concert in the park (sans music, for the most part), it was decided that a stroll was in order. What follows are some pictures and descriptions of The Day Wall Street Was Not Occupied (otherwise known as a stroll through the park).
