After reading the passage below, tell me what is odd or unusual about it, other than it doesn't make a lot of sense. There is nothing WRONG with this passage, it's just got something unusual to it.
"Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night.

Also, this passage is from the book "Gatsby". My father forwarded this to me, he's got a knack for these things.
Whoever gets it right gets the best answer!
