When I shoot night time photos, for some reason, I just really like to shoot very high speed, grainy looking black and white photos with a serious mood to them. This is one of my favorite locations, any location with a street lamp actually, it provides a great atmosphere to work with.

I suspect you included a large amount of space to emphasize the isolation of your subject, but this image might be improved by copping much of the bottom nd right side of the image from the composition. They add little that the lights and darkness don't already provide.
Reminds me of a sepia I entered in a challenge a long time ago where I purposely added grain for effect.:

I can't decide whether this should have had a tighter crop or not - it would do more for the subject if it was tighter, but having the wider crop emphasises the loneliness of the person. 6
