Happy Valentine's Day

In advance of Valentine's day this weekend, I wish you all a sweet one! These are some hearts I saw in a store window at Heartart creations in Chelsea. I'll be away on Monday so have a good weekend and see you Tuesday!

Snow Day

We had the day off from work yesterday (a very rare snow day!) and since I didn't leave my house I had to show you a photo from my window. The snow was really beautiful and it was nice to enjoy it from inside!

Bow Bridge

I just read in the magazine Crain's New York that "the Bow Bridge in Central Park has been declared the most romantic spot in Central Park, according to a survey conducted by Central Park Conservancy. Throughout the month of January, more than 1,000 people voted on the agency's Web site, recounting their own romantic moment at the spot. The Bow Bridge - built in 1862, making it the second-oldest cast-iron bridge in the U.S. - won out over other popular park spots such as Belvedere Castle, Bethesda Terrace and the Conservatory Garden."

Bethesda

The last big storm missed us completely and Washington, DC got all of our snow! This photo of the Bethesda Fountain in Central Park was taken after the first snow this winter in December. We are expecting a big storm this week and I can't wait!

Chrysler building again

I love all of the details in the Chrysler building in midtown Manhattan. I wish I could get a look at these adornments up close. This photo was the best I could do!

Windows

One of the glass ceilings in an atrium at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I've exhausted all of my photos in the archives, so hopefully I'll find something fun to photograph over the weekend. Have a good one!

Pier

This is one of the piers that juts out into the Hudson River as part of the park that runs along the river. This was taken a few years ago on a gloomy day.

Line of Taxis

A line of taxis heads up this street one morning in Midtown Manhattan. Luckily I had a bird's-eye view. Not sure which street this was, perhaps Lexington Avenue. Have a good Wednesday.

Subway Tracks

Despite it being called the subway, I just read the approximately 40% of the tracks in the New York City subway system are actually above ground. These are some elevated tracks in Queens. On these cold days, I'm glad my subway station is under ground!

Hudson River

To start the week, a view of the Hudson River flowing between upper Manhattan on the right and New Jersey on the left. This shot was taken from the Manhattan neighborhood of Washington Heights. Have a good week.
