Huh? That’s right. I was in park slope, brooklyn for the event but I still snapped an interesting water tower sunset from our new apt. What is Manhattanhenge?  It’s a semiannual occurrence where sun aligns with the east–west streets of the street grid of Manhattan. You can checkout some great shots and examples on flickr here: Manhattanhenge Photos and also from twitter here: NYC Manhattanhenge.

New York City must be in the running for city that holds the most parades; and diverse parades. I came across the Veggie Pride Parade randomly the other day, led by no other, than Mr. Carrot himself.  I didn’t have the heart to tell him where I was heading for lunch.

I imagine that’s what the Craig’s List Post would look like for this place. I love how brokers can spin anything on Craig’s List. I stumbled upon this lovely abode only a few blocks from where I saw my first apt. listing ever about 10 years ago. In fact, the description isn’t too far off.

Taken down by the east river beach in Dumbo. I couldn’t believe this place even existed and was completely empty at sunset. What a great little find!  As I was writing this post, I came accross this cool little art project taking place here called D’Art Buoy.  You can find out more about it here: http://dartbuoy.wordpress.com/
