here's the link to the NYT article that tells his story:

Well, he's already doing it and has a blog: http://imjustwalkin.com/
where he post pictures and some videos of curious things, like the window of the bridges, that he goes finding along his way.
Kind of odd but pretty interesting as well.

I would never do it (I can't even get around to doing my personal canyons of Manhattan series - started years ago), but it is cool. This guy will so more of New York than anyone ever has.
