These are pics of my immediate neighborhood.
This first one is looking toward the first block
of Eastern Parkway, where I live.
On the right is the Brooklyn Public Library
where we spend many wonderful hours
listening to concerts and poetry readings and such.
To the left is Richard Meier's 15 story "Glass Tower".
This second picture is of Grand Army Plaza
and the Sailors and Soldiers Arch,
which is just to the left of the Meier building
in the first photo, and across the street from that
is our beautiful Prospect Park
designed by the renowned Frederick Law Olmsted
and Calvert Vaux.
This last photo is of The Bailey Fountain
that stands directly behind the Sailors and Soldiers Arch.
Very nice photos of the neighborhood you choose to live! Debby :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot of Sailors and Soldiers Arch!
That is really something living in NYC. Great photos.
ReplyDeleteHi Debby!! Love your neighbourhood shots!! That glass building in the first shot looks familiar, I'm sure I saw it when I was in NY. The 'Sailors & Soldiers' arch is very impressive!! Love the action-capture of the fountain in the last shot.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to live in a big city, I think NYC would be one of the ones I'd choose, it's a fabulous place!! There seems to be a million and one things to photograph....probably more!! LOL.
Wonderful trio of shots. Love the arch with the statues and the imposing fountain.
ReplyDeletevery exciting pics, I wonder how nice is to live in a place so full of interesting things to do
ReplyDeleteI love NY and you have captured it so nicely, the contrasts between modern and classic buildings, and lovely statues and archways.
