Paley Park
I stopped by Paley Park after visiting the Museum of Modern Art a couple of weeks ago. This is one of my favorite places in Manhattan. Probably one of the most tranquil places in Manhattan too, especially when it's empty in early evening.It's on 53rd Street, between Madison Avenue and 5th.
I posted on Paley Park in 2011, on my old Blogger blog (now discontinued but still online). You can look there for details on its history, or just do a quick Internet search.
The sounds of the falling water completely eliminate all street noise.
Stretching upward for light, the Honey locusts (Gleditsia triacanthos) have become sculpture.
The park was built in 1967.
