Solitude

a quiet time feeding pidgeons and thinking.

A Song Bird in the Park

author: jack : New York, NY

there she was, playing her guitar and singing, she was like a nightingale, alone, we made eye contact and i winked and she smiled. she was a vision of the 60's, a wanderer, a street minstrel, a time, long ago, when my friend tommy and i walked the streets of the village, i almost saw my friend there for a second but my daughters baby brought me back to reality, to the reality that my friend was dead and i was a grandpa and as i gazed into my little ones eyes i forgot about my youth and i concentrated...

GIANT MURAL

author: jack : New York, NY

this mural i posted in the fall but i saw there were more murals along side of that one i caught. so without further ado i present to you, courtesy of citynoise, the complete and unabridged mural of musicians. and as you proceed to the right of this mural you will see the next mural. and after looking at this mural we will continue to the right and see the last mural. and the next pic is at the front door of the inhabitants. the groove record store.

A Restaurant

author: jack : New York, NY

this is an old restaurant, it was owned by a women who had a sign posted outside saying, 'we do not like men, but you can come inside,' yes, it was a lesbian hangout in the 40's called, 'swing rendezvous', then it became the, 'underground', in 1967 with it's psychedelic lighting, where i once had a scotch with friends. the restaurant is ground level and the club is in the celler. now it's the comedy celler where jon stewart and jerry seinfeld performed, but watch out, the bathrooms are in the club and you have to pass in front...

The Hanging Tree

author: jack : New York, NY

in the northwest corner of washington square park can be found the one of the oldest trees in manhattan. the area was used as a graveyard for slaves and yellow fever victims, a dueling ground and a place of execution. in 1824, supposedly, the marquis de lafayette witnessed the hanging of 20 highwaymen. the last person hung here was rose butler in 1820 for arson. there is a big notch on the left side of the tree, probably where the hanging branch was. in 1826 it became a military parade ground and then later on transformed into...

The Christmas Tree

author: jack : New York, NY

my daughter caught this shot of the arch christmas tree and a glimpse of the empire state from washington square park. some man walked into the scene, must be a wannabee character actor. the old coot! anyway she wanted me to take a pic of the old hanging tree which i will post next. and i retook the mural by the groove so you all can see how big it is. by the way that is the beginning of 5th avenue behind the tree.
