I LOVE it. I have a thing for street numbers, subway numbers, maps, and all kinds of crazy stuff (plus who couldn't love NY). Great work.

I love your contributions! New York - how exciting!! (I'm kind of envious - although I'd probably panic if I ever found myself smack dab in the middle of NYC! It's SO BIG!!).

My eye is drawn to the weathered and worn timbers above the "Ferry" sign. "All Times" caused me to think of all of the "times," and their incumbent stories, that the structure has 'seen' and 'known' through all of its times. I do so enjoy visiting with You, Dear Annie. Thank you for this bit.

Lovingly ...

Numbers are everywhere aren't they? Great choice - and so relevant to a big city :-)

I just noticed that you have a book listed that I checked out from the library and haven't started yet, "The Piano Shop on the Left Bank". It sounds interesting and it must be good since you've listed it!

I have hardly had time to comment on my comments lately...thanks one and all for visiting..

J-M Glad you liked the "all times' photo...yes, the history of places certainly fascinates me too.

The subway there is the raised one, and it certainly looks like it has been there a looong time...in fact I find myself checking to see what the bolts look like when I walk down the stairs whenever I use that subway!

Karen, I enjoyed reading The Piano on the Left Bank while I was here in NY last year. The funny story was that I was sitting next to a young guy on the subway one day, and trying to see what interesting book he was reading..when he commented on mine and said he was a student in Paris, loved the book also, and had tried to go find the shop...!!! It is a small world..even in New York!

One day I will get around to leaving comments on everyone's blogs...may take me a little while..I have already visited some you.
