Weekend Reflections

Years ago, I had a boss who owned one of these
fabulous houses in Brooklyn Heights (think 
where Cher lived in Moonstruck).  His wife
insisted they sell it and move to Bay Ridge (now
think Saturday Night Fever).  These days, that house 
would be worth many millions of dollars
(and I wonder if he's forgiven her shortsightedness.)

    Where they have been maintained, these old houses are fabulous! And the windows make for great reflections.

    I just love bow windows : a little outside inside... And the structure of this one is particulary interesting.

    The reflection in that bay window is great. I've a cousin who lives in Brooklyn Heights and in London. Beautiful locations, but I would not trade her.

    I love your little story Alexa! You set the stage perfectly for the story that played out in my mind as I read.
    There is a similar home in the West Village over by Cherry Lane Theatre. Have you ever seen it? I've often fantasized about living there.
    PS James, Go see Moonstruck, it's a great story.
