Manhattan's Majesty



This island will probably stand out through the test of time, like the Pyramids, as the definition of what we were about in this period of human history. No where is that question answered best than here.

My wing-fling Eastvillagepeeps brings us more from their Flickr account where one captures good poses and dramatic shots with little acrobatic or stuntman assistance.

Above, the UN from the Spirit Cruise Lines' yacht, from the upper deck while drifting past in the East River. The one below is of the apartments along Central Park West somewhere in the mid-80s. The green sludge pond is in the upper northwest center of the park, with nice trails that go through relatively untouched portions of the park in that area. But safe, you are not far from a major road, there are police substations and patrols all around, and in general a safe area to be in on a nice day. You can also rowboat and paddleboat downstream from here. Nice, right?

Thanks EVP!
