Game

I guess hockey can be a year-round activity on roller blades and no ice is needed. Perfect for a city playground!

Lines

I saw this strange pattern on the sidewalk in Soho. It must be some type of art, but I didn't see any signs. I wonder who created it?

Quilts 2

I couldn't resist posting one more photo from that Quilt exhibit I saw over the weekend. I was so amazed by the patterns and the craftsmanship!

Quilts

This weekend I visited "Infinite Variety: Three Centuries of American Quilts," an exhibition at the Park Avenue Armory and it was magnificent!! There are 650 red and white quilts that all belong to the same person, Joanna Rose. The exhibition was an 80th birthday present from her husband and a gift to New York in that the exhibit was free. It was just amazing! If you are anywhere near New York you should come and see it. It's only here until March 30.

Hotel

Isn't this a cool looking hotel? The High Line Park goes right under it. The guests must have quite a view. And the walkers on the High Line must have a good view of the guests too. Hope you have a good weekend!

Umbrellas

This is a hot dog stand, seen from above. I liked the colorful umbrellas. You never notice those when you see them from street level.

Cool building

I walked past this new building the other day that I think was on 16th Street. It was so new that they haven't taken the tape off the windows yet. I'm curious as to what is going in there. I'll have to walk by again in a few months and see what is happening.

Highest point

One of the parks in my neighborhood is Bennett Park in which is found the highest natural point in Manhattan (265 feet above sea level). There's a small marker that points out that spot, in what was the location of Fort Washington, the Revolutionary War camp of George Washington and his troops (at least according to wikipedia.)

Skyline

I was hoping to get a photo of the giant moon this past weekend from my friend's terrace. I couldn't get any good ones so I have to show the buildings instead. I always love seeing that view!

Posters

This is another photo near 14th Street. You can tell the weather is getting warmer because people aren't wearing any coats. Let's hope it holds this weekend. Have a good one!
