Williamsburg Savings Bank

I think I might be the last person to post pictures from the Open House NY event a few weeks ago...but here they are, finally.

Thrilling, no?

Hispanic Day Parade

I usually abhor parades...boring spectacles of floats with B-list celebrities, unwieldy balloons and the requisite marching bands. However, on my way to an OHNY site in Rockefeller Center, I stumbled onto the side streets where people were getting ready for the parade. Just wonderful. You could feel the energy and excitement as everyone cranked up the music, got dressed and practiced dancing in the streets.

Sky Mirror

I just had the most wonderful, I heart NY kind of days. I took a lot of pictures which I'll post in the next week.

Let's first start with Anish Kapoor's Sky Mirror in Rockefeller Center. I orginally intended to see the rooftop garden as a part of OHNY but the line was SO long that I skipped it and watched the preparations for the Hispanic Day Parade instead (pictures coming soon).
