Why I Love My ‘Hood
If there is a bumblefuck corner of Manhattan, it’s my neighborhood. I never know if I should tell people I live in Chinatown or the lower Lower East Side. I don’t really belong here, not being a Chinese immigrant or a Hasidic Jew or even Puerto Rican. (Quite a mix…) And then there’s me.
And this is just on one block, not even getting into the offshoots of Chinatown or the galleries down here.

The newly opened High Line in New York is a really nicely-done park that hovers above the city on the sight of old train tracks, which are now interspersed among the wildflowers.
And some sights from it….
It looks like a typical old warehouse building. I never would have known the top of that roof was covered in flowers!
