Gantry Plaze Park in Long Island City is another cool place to take a stroll, Some nice greenery on one side and the east River on other side.
An Interesting thing I read on one of the Link Wifi terminals recently is that back in around 1916 a city Engineer came up with a plan to fill in the east river to give more real estate opportunities and to ease up traffic congestion in and out of Manhattan, a plan I am glad never happened.

Along the park walkway are a few piers like this one, and as you can see you also get good views across the Eat river of Manhattan,

This was a cool light/Sculpture I saw there, and as you can see from these shots it is another park with plenty of benches if you need to sit down and take a break.

Want to have your post on the map too?
Thats a sculpture? Looks like a cross between a spaceship and corn silo? Lol. But I am not an art critic. Well, not prefessionally anyway.
Certainly full of things to see. Love your tours of the city.
I guess art is in the eye of the beholder, I think your description of that piece is quite appropriate
You nailed it. Blue is one of my favorite colors.
Have a wonderful Saturday. :)
Thanks have a great day
aww yum all blushish ; as always stunning pix from you💥🐉🐉💗

I have not been with you for a long time, I have devoted one of my posts to my beloved grandma, who I just lost.
Greetings my dear friend.
Beautiful places of New York. Great weather, accompanied you.
So sorry for your loss and what a beautiful poem for your grandmother
Wow, absolutely amazing photograph.I really like this picture.

howdy sir JJ! another interesting and relaxing walk today, it's brilliant. That engineer had a plan to fill in the East river? lol. I agree with you, I'm so glad they didn't try to do that! great pictures as always!
Yes I am so glad that plan never took root, it would have been such a shame
You always have so many interesting places to take a walk!
Thanks I tend to explore all over
