A view to a Park

We rented a helicopter earlier to scout potential locations around the neighborhood for the Lenin statue that workers removed from Red Square on Monday.

Seeing as the statue likely has a new home already... just enjoy the view looking west toward Tompkins Square Park between Seventh Street and Ninth Street...

Thanks to Steven for the photo.

East Village-based artist/photographer Daniel Root shared this photo looking toward the East Village from the MetLife building... They have some kind of film over the windows, which led to some distortion, but you get the idea...

Thanks to EVG regular jdx for this recent shot of the city, with Tompkins Square Park about right in the middle of the photo (didn't want to muck it up with the work of EV Arrow here) ... check out jdx's website here for more photos...

From Con Ed to Con Ed

Here's a penthouse view from the Con Ed power plant on East 14th Street looking west toward the Con Ed HQ on Union Square ... taken yesterday morning with the compliments of Mr. Gleason.
