Don't You Love It When.......



...you have a business meeting and it ends up being at an office/conference room with a fabulous city view? This is the view from 120 Wall Street in Manhattan...of course you have to be on the east side of the building and on a high floor to have access to it!

Sit! Take a Load Off!


It's probably a sign of my "advancing" age but now when I walk around the city, I notice all the inviting places there are to "sit and take a load off a while." (The toilet is in the ladies room at the New Museum.)

Trinity Church @ Broadway and Wall





There have been three Trinity Church buildings at Broadway and Wall Street. The present Trinity Church, designed by Richard Upjohn and consecrated in 1846, is considered to be a classic example of Gothic Revival architecture and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The original burial ground (and only active cemetery in Manhattan) at Trinity Church includes the graves and memorials of many historic figures, including Alexander Hamilton, William Bradford, Robert Fulton, and Albert Gallatin.

I couldn't get over the amazing color of the new grass as I walked by the site a few days ago and the juxtaposition of old and new!
