I HAte Waiting

[Keith S.]

I was waiting for my brother today to meet me in lower Manhattan, and got bored so I decided to take some pics, hope you guys enjoy:













I walk by these buildings all the time and never really took the time to stop and notice them. Most of the time while on vacation I notice the buildings and things like that where I'm visiting, and I always think about how shitty home is, but I realized that there ARE nice buildings where I'm from, and I should appreciate them more. I take living here for granted, and I think it's nice to stop/slow down and think about the things you appreciate.

Keith,
Nice pics.
Too bad, we don't construct buildings anymore. Instead we build constructions.

Where'd all that snow go?

Nice pics, T-K. Here's my everyday views from where I work.
From my office window


Yes, the East River is underneath me.

From towards the shore (with some snow)


The Department of Sanitation, with the help of some warm temps, had the snow all cleared out within 4 days.

Out of curiosity, Where do they put it all? Upstate? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

BTW guys, great pics. NYC is such a cool looking place. I've only driven through it a couple of times, never stopped to do anything. A shame, too. I have an aunt and uncle that live in Manhattan.

This year we had 3 days where the temperature went into the 50's right after the snow, so a lot of it melted. A few years ago when we had a bad storm they were loading the snow into large dump trucks and actually dumping it into the river.

That area where Keith posted is a great place to walk around in. But then again all of Manhattan is. So many great neighborhoods, all very different, on one considerably small island.

NIce pics, I can't believe that I live 10 minutes from the city and haven't been there for over a year.

[OldGuy]

Hell yeah, vandamme. I work down on Furman. Ice cream store is right down the block. You're real close. I walk throught the Heights daily. Well at least in the nice weather.

PM me sometime when you're around. Would like to say hi to you after all these years.
