Fantasy island

In a Halloween post, I referred to this as a haunted house. It just has that quality.

I tend to romanticize the sky, and this one has billowing clouds that overflow with stories.

Observed on this day

It’s a lobby that has the look and feel of a doll-house.

Some “Places” of New York

Sutton Place is so grand it has a South extension to its regular road. Beekman Place has quiet dignity and a hidden charm.

Of course, technically, Sutton Place is just a continuation of York Avenue. The whole length of their combined dominance goes from 53rd to 91st, a 4 mile run. To the East from 79th to its end is the charmingly quiet East End Avenue.

I hate rats. Don’t you?

My “water tower” collection

Some people like myself are partial to the water tower. It tops buildings of a certain size and build.

Google this

What are your favorite websites?

You guessed it. I love Google. I use Google to check out friends and acquaintances. Oh, that sounds creepy.

I also use it for directions for routes and information about things I have seen on my walks.

Whew. Now that sounds more normal.

Bridge the gap

Once upon a time, we called it the 59th Street or the Queensboro Bridge. It’s now the Ed Koch Bridge
