What a great post! I love your pic posts, but the commentary was fascinating. I've never been to New York (I tend to head west when I travel) but this post makes me want to go.
New York has something for everyone! Bojoette loves the Broadway shows and shopping, Bojojr and Bumberjean are pretty much interested in everything, I love the museums, and Mr. Bojo enjoys seeing us enjoy ourselves.
We did all the touristy things our first trip; visited neighborhoods the second, and this last trip enjoyed more entertainment.
I enjoy Project Runway, too. It wasn't until I was home and looking at my photos that I finally put together that the park was THE Bryant Park of PR fame!
I agree wholeheartedly that an individual or individuals can wrought change not even on a government's radar. What an amazing place Bryant Park is for the entire city.
It's a fine example of what can happen when generally paralyzed government entities can open their eyes to possibilities and work together for the greater good.

Your picture of the ice-rink looks very Breugel-esque.

The park's redesign was fashioned after some of the nicest European parks, so I'm not surprised you see similarities. Always borrow from the best!

New Yorkers need every bit of green they can get.
