Taken under the Gowanus Expressway, but about the canal.

Running with the Cars

I frequently see people walking or jogging in bike or lanes and I can’t seem to help but think how ridiculously idiotic they look.  I can only speculate that their reason for engaging in this behavior is that they believe that all the people walking on the sidewalks will slow them down, even in an industrial ghost town stretch of street such as this.  I can get annoyed with cyclist that don’t follow traffic rules, ride on the sidewalks, endanger pedestrians, etc, but I’m in their corner on this one; and when this pedestrian has to have some fixie’s handlebars surgically removed from their rectum, perhaps in time they will change their behavior.

Beneath the BQE

 

The Brooklyn-Queens Expressway cuts a huge, noisy, antiquated, and congested swath through the boroughs the bare its name.  Seeing as I don’t drive it regularly, or even own a car for that matter, I have very little use for the aging infrastructure.  Well, with one exception, the photos I take of it.  These photos were taken on Park Avenue, under the BQE, in the Clinton Hill area of Brooklyn, and near the Navy Yard.

Just a reminder to practice restraint, because you could end up feeling this way the day after. Taken in a shop window, near Union Square.

Icy Walk along New Utrect Avenue

 

My photographic documentation of the city tend to slow to the crawl during winter months.  I find it difficult to muster the motivation to squeeze in time for a photographic section during inclimate weather, but something had to give, and it occurred on a windy, 18 degree, February day.  This walk took place on New Utrect Avenue in the Borough Park section of Brooklyn.

Well Armed Architecture

One of the buildings with the coolest Romanesque architecture in NYC is the Kingsbridge Armory in The Bronx. Its future use has been somewhat of an area of political contention for the city and the Bloomberg administration.
