Our Neighborhood

Spring is in full force on the Upper East Side. Blooming trees are starting to shade the fire escapes and detailed brickwork of nearby apartment buildings. One row of buildings stretches into the next and plays the backdrop for our daily lives. Our street is fairly quiet, by New York standards, but the busy avenues lay just around the corner. Lots of people walk under the arching trees as they make their way here to there - walking their dog, pushing a stroller, carrying their dry cleaning or groceries, or just heading out for the day.

Here is a glimpse of our neighborhood in the springtime.

Our apartment building is in the foreground. Our apartment overlooks the street.




Filled with pretty details like these frosted globe lanterns.
