Went out to the big Shea Thursday night with Brendan, Steve and Keri.
It's sad to think that Shea Stadium will not be around a few years from now. It doesn't have the history that Yankee Stadium does, but it has seen some of NYC's best baseball ( and football ) memories. I saw my first game here. I will miss the place.

Red Hook, Brooklyn - Fairway Market Streetcars
When this block was redone ,they made sure to preserve these tracks--but unfortunately they will not be used by streecars...
Red Hook, Brooklyn - Fairway Market Streetcars
The new Fairway Market in Red Hook, Brooklyn is a wonderful addition to a borough that does not have enough good food markets. Behind the market, there is an outdoor cafe where you can eat by the water, right by the Statue of Liberty. But you also see three old streetcars. You might think that they're old Brooklyn streecars, but actually they're from Boston. ( Saw an old "T" sticker in one ) I believe that someone in Red Hook had the dream to bring back streetcar service to Brooklyn. Ain't gonna happen. This streetcar has truly reached the end of the line.
Don't the front of these streetcars look like the old green buses?

American Flags in Bay Ridge- July 4, 2006
A large flag graces this house on 76th Street below Sixth Avenue.To enlarge this Flickr photo, double-click on it. To make it really large, then click on "All Sizes" --it should then be larger than full-screen.

I think that this is 73rd Street, above Sixth Avenue. A very pretty block.

Flags fly on Ovington Avenue above Sixth Avenue. In the distance, the B-1 ( 69th Street ) bus makes its way west, where it ends its run on Shore Road.
