East Coast Day 15: New York

[reviews_and_ramblings]

This morning we visited Brooklyn... I don't know, probably I didn't see the part I was expecting to see, but sincerely it didn't say me too much. After lunch we went to see Harlem and then end the day in Times Square. I called this part of the day "searching" the old New York in Times Square, behind all the glitters and the advertisement. I think Mick will like some of these pictures. I ended the afternoon with a coffee and a chat with Jesse Archer (http://jesseonthebrink.blogspot.com/), he is nice as it seems on video and reading his blog.

Around the Wor...

Brooklyn seems like a regular city compared to Manhattan. I do love my trips to Brooklyn, as it's a respite from the crowds on Manhattan Island.

Do you know where you found the building in the picture above the Hard Rock picture or what building it is?

Great pictures, Elisa. They make me homesick for the city I adore.

Lovely

Lovely photos of a facade standing and covering up the beauty that lies hidden underneath. You need a shrink psychiatrist to get in deep and understand what's hidden but the shrink will come out as shattered and deluded as you are. The classic way of change in New York is to destroy it, tear down the beauty and put up something bland, disgusting, ugly. As an alive city, as it once was, New York is near its end. At least we've seen it for a brief moment...

Thank you Elisa for those wonderful pictures of New York today! I have not been there since 9/11 for various reasons, and it was good to see pictures to inspire me to go back while I'm still around . . . If you need to get out of the city world and have a little country, I'm only 60 miles due West, in a wonderful oasis of preserved wetlands and animal preserve. I'm around all weekend!

Sorry Elisa! Didn't see a place to put my name. That and this are from Sally Miller, Synergy Press and Synergy Book Service, publisher of all those slightly depressing yet hopeful books of Mykola Dementiuk.
