In the Mood for Manhattan

I shot this from the beautiful East River Promenade looking towards Brooklyn. Walking the Promenade is a wonderful way to see great views of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Roosevelt Island, and all the magnificent bridges that span the East River.

I'm standing on the east side of Fifth Avenue, just north of Washington Square Park. A lot has changed. A lot hasn't. The observant NYC-ophile will note that Fifth Avenue was two ways back then.

A heavy summer storm is approaching the City from the west as I stand on the 20th story terrace of a building near the East Village, looking northwest.
