Back Better Than Ever

I remember the desolation and the heartbreak after the attack 15 years ago. I love seeing my city rebuilt, strong, better than ever.  I love NY and lower Manhattan is my favorite part of the city.,

 Freedom Tower from Occulus, new transportation hub and shopping center

 Another view from Occulus

 Crowds are back, shopping away

 Liberty Park-elevated park near towers

 View from Liberty Park

 West Side traffic from Liberty Park

 Even the birds of Battery City park are happy


And of course the wonderful events, like Battery City Dance

Looking West

The clouds and rain stopped me from seeing Manhattan Hedge but this view was pretty cool-
looking west on 43rd St from 5th Ave.

Springtime?

Park Ave and 64th St

63rd and Lexington Ave

The flowers and blooming trees say spring but the raw weather says something else.

NYC-you got to love it no matter what the weather does.

Free Fun

I never miss the model train exhibit at the Transit Museum Annex in Grand Central Terminal this time of year.  The exhibit is fantastic.  It runs until the end of February and it is FREE!!!!

The Arsenal At Central Park

Lost Gloves

 Bottle Caps

 Cans

 Surge Protectors

New York Condoms

One of my all time favorite exhibits this time of year--wreaths at the Central Park Arsenal made from recycled and very unusual materials.  The added bonus is the magnificent building it is housed in-on 64th St and 5th Ave.  I almost forgot, it is free1

My Favorite Time Of Year
