Beekman Place
Manhattan
Friday, December 19, 2008
Four images:
From the front door of my apartment building, looking north (the East River is right around the corner). Very New York, no?
Looking Southwest; my (dull, utterly nondescript 1950's) building is on the left, through the trees. Very quiet, great views!
Looking South; straight on, United Nations Plaza, a well-known residential building. Some former residents: Truman Capote,
Robert Kennedy, Johnny Carson. Current residents include Walter Cronkite and SI Newhouse (owns Vogue and Vanity Fair).
The corner building on the right (diagonally across where I live) was the former residence of Irving Berlin, who wrote the
song 'White Christmas'--now the Luxembourg Consulate (the East River in the back). I have seen 18 Christmas Trees since
I moved into Beekman Place, and I love it. (Bad photo, but you can see a father throwing snowballs with his two children.)
That's it!
More snow expected through the weekend--I can't wait!
serious crayons:
Pretty photos, John. Is that tall swervy thing a really eccentric tree, or a bit of Christmas holiday decor?
