NYC Gray’s Papaya
On Broadway, near the corner of 72nd avenue is a modern day legend of cheap eats. Founded by a former owner of Papaya King, this clone was founded in 1973. It serves hot dogs and home made tropics flavored drinks. When I lived in NYC it was known for being a cheap lunch. You could get a drink and hot dog combo for $1.99. Today, its now $5.99 but still cheaper than most lunches you can get anywhere in NYC.
NYC Modern Dating
I captured this moment in Rockefeller Plaza. Maybe this wasn’t a First Date. With the way they were kind of arguing, it could be a last date?
NYC American Wing at the MET
Happy Independence Day! America can be proud of its excellence. This art is some of our best.
NYC Free Bryan Park Movies
Every summer, Bryant Park hosts free outdoor movies projected on the Western end of the lawn. When we were dating the mid-1990’s, I took my girlfriend (later wife) here on one of our first dates. It’s magic.
NYC Before Yesterday We Could Fly
Before Yesterday We Could Fly: An Afrofuturist Period Room is a multi-artist exhibition whose narrative is generated by the real, lived history of Seneca Village, a vibrant community founded predominantly by free Black tenants and landowners that flourished from the 1820s to the 1850s near The Met’s current site.
NYC Temple of Dendur
The Temple of Dendur is an Egyptian religious temple that was rescued from the floodwaters during the construction of the Aswan Dam and reservoir. It was donated by the Egyptian government and has been on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art since 1978.
The museum built an extension to its north wing to house the temple. It connects the Egyptian art wing to the American wing of the Met. It is one of the most striking and visited installations at the museum. It was featured in several films, including When Harry Met Sally. A recent addition to the exhibit is a projection depicting the original white surface and brightly colored decorations that would have adorned the temple.
NYC Deserted Fulton Street Station
Due to crime and mismanagement by the MTA, the multi-million dollar renovation of the Fulton Street Station and shopping center lies mostly empty and deserted of commerce. Only stores that remain open are a donut shop and a newspaper stand. The situation is a sad indictment of the DeBlasio and Adams administrations at NY City Hall and the Cuomo administration in Albany.
