Laundromat on 86th Street, originally uploaded by bayridgephantom.

This laundromat looks like it has stood at the north side of 86th Street, above Sixth Avenue, for quite a while. Gotta love those curtains.

Bay Ridge Ave Subway Entrance


Bay Ridge Ave Subway, originally uploaded by dstueber.

There's a whole universe of photos to be found on flickr.com and Bay Ridge gets its fair share.

See above shot of the world-famous Bay Ridge Avenue R subway entrance. From below, looking up. Get nice separation of the globes, what looks to be the last bit of light before night sets in, from above and through the rails to the left.

If you're like me, you'l often enough turn to the right upon exiting here, in order to get two slices and a Coke from Original's Pizza on the corner of Fourth Avenue and Bay Ridge Avenue ( 69th St )

278 Entrance


Turning onto Manhattan bound 278, off 86th Street, 7th Avenue. The direction sign probably dates to when the Verrazano Bridge opened in 1964.

Cars exiting at 86th Street and Seventh Avenue from 278, in the direction coming from Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn. The driver in the lead car has noticed me taking the photo. The woman passenger continues to read a book. ( double click photos to see greater detail )
