Saturday I met Peter and Kath and we went for a short walk round
Red Hook, and its waterfront.

| Old warehouses by the water |

| View of the Verrazano Narrows and Bridge |
Sunday I took the subway with Brian and Leonie and a friend, plus the kids to Battery Park Playground, in southern Manhattan, by the Hudson. Within view is the w-i-p of Freedom Tower, which is to replace the WTC twin towers. So much waterfront in this city one way and another, and they are making great use of it. Lunch in a rather typical burger place.
Kath's ceramics show is on at the Brooklyn Greenway Initiative Gallery until July 7 2012

Great view of the big bridge. Is that where the SF trams go when they die?
ReplyDeleteI only saw three - Peter says that someone was once hoping to restore and run them - there are still some remnants of old tracks, but it looks as though they're slowly rotting away.
