Yes, it’s a new year, but the same winter air from last year still persists. To be outside and enjoy the views from the Queensboro Bridge would be nice. With the temperatures in NYC today hovering around 41 degrees, I’ll have to opt out of one my favorite spots to drink a coffee, reflect, and write in Italian or Spanish.
I prefer the small park on 56th Street and 1st Avenue to admire the bridge in all her glory. I learned about this location from Manhattan. The scene served as the film’s poster image:
The cold inhibits me today, but I relish in the time I spent watching the bridge and looking out into the East River last summer:
| From the Manhattan side looking towards Long Island City, Queens. |
| Looking up the East River on the Manhattan side of the bridge. |
Yes, Woody, this really is a great city!
