Photographs: NYC in the Spring!

Above: Art, trash or both? Only on the streets in NYC...

Left: View from the East Side Greenway. Go biking!

And, in honor of April being Bike Month in NYC:


(This was spotted by Grand Central in Manhattan. Use Metrocards for bikes... ?)

And on that note of being healthy, below is a picture of my local farmer's market, Saturdays in McCarren Park:


And finally, a May Day mural, made by Shepard Fairey, located on Houston and Bowery:


Yes, NYC, I love you... or continue to be addicted to you, anyway.

NYC Celebrating Earth Day in Times Square?!

Apparently there is an extended Earth Day celebration in Times Square today, in honor of Earth Day's 40th anniversary. Can you smell the irony in the air?

New York Celebrates Earth Day's 40th Anniversary in Times Square -- NEW YORK, April 22 /PRNewswire/ --

Strange times we're in, indeed. Hmm, I may bike there today to check out the shenanigans. Oh, and did you know April is also bike month for NYC? Now that's a little more Earth Day friendly... See the info on the Transportation Alternatives website!

Ok, I admit it. I couldn't resist and so I biked to Times Square. It is basically a glorified marketing ploy supposedly in the name of the environment.
