Skywatch Friday

The folks over there in Jersey City have a
world-class view of lower Manhattan, but
those of us over here on this side of the Hudson
River get to enjoy this "big sky" vista—and
plenty of spectacular sunsets too (like this one).

Skywatch Friday

As promised on Tuesday—as I stood in Rockefeller Park and

looked west this was the view across the Hudson River.

(If you hang around, you get a really spectacular sunset.)

That's My World Tuesday

This is Rockefeller Park, just some of the green space

to be found at the southwestern tip of Manhattan.  It's

part of Battery Park City, built on 1.2 million cubic yards

of landfill, mostly rock and dirt excavated during the

construction of the Trade Towers.  The parks down here are

all public, but I have some lucky friends who live in that red

building back there and get to do yoga on the roof deck every 

day.  On Friday I'll show you what I saw when I turned around.
