I was in New York on Friday, getting a tooth fixed and visiting a close friend that I hadn’t seen in over twenty years. ‘Riding back to Penn Station from 94th Street, the taxi driver took a cut through Central Park.

Although I never tried ice skating in New York City, I think it is fun to try it in Central Park's Wollman Rink during winter.

I can see some horses and buggies lined up around the perimeter of the Central Park. I have tried myself to take a relaxing ride, though costly, I have enjoyed a lot. I can say that Central Park really offers a gorgeous backdrop as you get the feeling of what it was like to travel through Manhattan in the 19th century. When you visit New York, try horse and buggy rides! It is fun!

WWD reports today that the long-awaited Chanel Mobile Art pavilion will open in NYC's Central Park this coming Monday, October 21.

As both a Chanel and art lover, I cannot wait to see this! Pics of the venue below,

• Recommended Places to Go Online in Central Park: The following hot spots, courtesy of the Park Wifi, are excellent choices for working online while enjoying Nature, as noted in earlier posts:1. under the wisteria next to the Rumsey Playfield, near the Bethesda Terrace and Fountain.2. the Delacorte Theater, near the Shakespeare Garden and Belvedere Castle.3. the Harlem Meer, near the Dana Discovery Center.• Recommended Place for Casual Dining in Central Park: The Boathouse. Coming off a walk in the Ramble, I was glad to come upon the Boathouse and hang out at the outdoor bar for a glass of wine. The food choices are varied, and the place has that casual elegant vibe. Now high on my list for out-of-town guests.• Recommended Place to Stroll on One Day: from the Pond at the southeast c
View Larger MapI'm still marveling that it's possible to fish and blog at the same time at the Harlem Meer on the far northeast corner of Central Park. But that's not the only thing I observed on my fourth and final day of Central Park excursions this week. The northern part of the park features some of those walk-about vistas that transport the strolling spectator into the regions of the sublime landscape. There's method in the landscape architecture. This section of the park, at least when I visited yesterday, seemed far away from the visitor-heavy areas farther south and more a place for the surrounding neighbors. That makes sense, because I don't think many tourists come to New York to fish.As the map shows, I only walked through a limited area of the northern quadrant, and so I'm look

Let's talk about ducks.Fellow NYC bloggers, forget the link bait, because at the Harlem Meer, a serene pool of water at the far northeast corner of Central Park, it's possible to fish and blog at the same time. The rule of fishing here is catch-and-release, and the free Wifi provided by the park seems to be working fine. I'm writing from the edge of the water, just outside the Dana Discovery Center, but I should point out, in the interest of accuracy, that I am not currently fishing. The point is that I could if I wanted.So, here on Day 4, around 4:45 p.m., I've now completed several walks throughout the park. This afternoon, I took the C train uptown to 103rd and then walked east through some of the prettiest parts of the park I've seen so far, areas known as the Pool, the Loch, and the N
View Larger MapAh, yes, the walk around the Reservoir. I would like to be a runner and run around the Reservoir. Sometimes I jog. Mostly I walk. What you see here before you is the aerial view of the Reservoir (a good French word) in Central Park, and I can assure you that it's flat as a pancake. Otherwise, the water would all tip out. I walked around the Reservoir yesterday, reluctantly as I noted, and so enjoyed going back to the Delacorte Theater though there weren't any plays in progress.A word or two for those who might enjoy running around the Reservoir - signs posted there indicate that jogging, walking, running should be conducted in counter-clockwise fashion. Fortunately, anyone finding the jog, walk, or run tedious like me can bail out at regular intervals and join the slower pa
Leaving the Boathouse yesterday, I snapped this photo of the boaters on the water, and later, as I was looking at it, the image reminded me of a 19th century landscape painting. That's by design. Olmsted and Vaux, in designing Central Park, created vistas that would resemble paintings, like the ones by their friends in the Hudson River School. They designed Central Park with the notion that city dwellers would encounter the sublime as they walked around different areas of the park.Photographers in the 19th century often borrowed compositions from landscape painters, framing their shots in similar ways. In looking at the image above, I think I must carry around with me similar preconceptions of the sublime landscape and how it should be conventionally composed. In addition, my camera is an
View Larger MapToday, as part of this week's focus on Central Park, I will shift my attention northward to The Reservoir and to the larger area between 81st and 96th Streets. I plan to again file posts from the Wifi locations in the park, mostly likely from the Shakespeare Garden, the nearest spot at the south end of the area. The garden is pretty enough. The only drawback I've found in taking a laptop to work in the park is the occasional stream of falling cherry blossoms.The walk yesterday was ideal - from the garden to the Ramble and then the Loeb Boathouse, a modest stroll of perhaps 1.5 to 2 miles inside the park. In getting to the park, walking to the B or C subways that run up and down the west side of the park, climbing the steps inside subway stations, I'm averaging about 4 miles
When I emerged from the stroll in the Ramble, just described in the previous post, I emerged at the Loeb Boathouse where I saw many happy campers taking a needed break on this fine spring afternoon in Central Park. Why, on earth, should I walk to the Met today for a cup of tea when a glass of pinot grigio right here would do just fine?So, in addition to my previous recommendations to bring along bottled water and a map of Central Park, tuck away $10 for these kind of post-wandering-in-the-woods emergencies.After soaking in the Boathouse and watching the boaters out in the water, I realized I was just east of the Bethesda Terrace, and that, of course, the Terrace was near the wisteria-covered arbor, the Wifi place where I filed the posts from yesterday. That's where I am now. How convenient
After leaving my temporary office in the Shakespeare Garden, I walked up to Belvedere Castle, a "folly" in the world of Victorian gardening, and then through the natural ecosystem known as The Ramble. Without any predetermined path, and that's the only way to walk here, I wandered through this intentionally natural part of the park. Still, several people were squirreled away in The Ramble, mainly birders with binoculars around their necks, and I came across several solitary souls sitting on benches. Many were dressed in pastel sports shirts, so they seemed like Easter eggs.Because the Ramble works in mysterious ways, I wandered over the Azalea Bridge, near the area you see here, and then made my way east. I emerged at the southeast corner of the Ramble at the Loeb Boathouse. Once there, I
If you're in New York right now and you need to do some work online and you can leave the office, check out this place. I'm in the Shakespeare Garden, just up the steps from the location of this picture. Belvedere Castle is to my right and up another small flight of stairs. The Delacorte Theatre, home to the New York Public Theater Shakespeare in the Park, is just to my north, and is the source of this Wifi signal. I'm sitting on a bench made out of tree limbs.I took the C subway to 81st, at the stop for the American Museum of Natural History, walked east along a pathway next to the Diana Ross Playground, and then over to the Delacorte. Do you need to go back now and re-read the Diana Ross Playground part? I would.Today's plan is to hang out here, catch up on emails, make notes about film
View Larger MapI plan to return to Central Park today but shift my attention northward to the areas around 86th Street. I mapped out the walks from yesterday - the walk near 72nd St. to the Bethesda Terrace and Fountain and then the walk to the zoo and to the Pond, as featured here. Noted, too, is the excellent Wifi spot under the arbor, as well as additional Wifi spots in Sheep Meadow and the area near Columbus Circle at the Maine Monument. I tried to get online at Sheep Meadow but failed. I could have tried for a spot in the middle of the meadow and had more success.Sheep Meadow would be fun if there were actual sheep grazing. The photo I took doesn't do justice to the wide angle scene and expanse of so many people sleeping and sunbathing in Central Park.For those longing to spend a few
I'm continuing to enjoy sitting and walking in Central Park, and I'm back under the wisteria now, a Wi-fi hotspot, near the Rumsey Playfield. Since the last post, I started getting hungry, so I wandered over to the Leaping Frog Cafe at the entrance of the zoo to get a little lunch. I needed to find a salad and some fruit. The food offerings in the park are generally limited to two categories - hot dogs and ice cream. If you like hot dogs and ice cream sandwiches, you would love Central Park.On my way to the zoo, I strolled down the wide Mall toward the Literary Walk (statues of an affected-looking Robert Burns, a serious Walter Scott, and a commanding Shakespeare) and then down to the Pond in the southeast corner of the park (as in photo above).

Today I did something I rarely do: walked across Central Park from the East Side of New York to the West Side. NOBODY who grew up in the New York Metropolitan Area waltzes around or through that park - NOBODY. We're trained from birth to stay the heck OUT of there since God only knows what might be in the park with us. A friend who once worked as a volunteer for the New York City Mounted Auxiliary Police once told me that he patrolled in there on horseback, and that it was better to avoid it than enter it, given all the criminals he'd had to chase, and I believed him.But today I had to get to a dentist for an emergency appointment. And the dentist in question had an office on the other side of the park from where I'd been hanging out.So cross the park I did, since I could see there wer

Madonna está preparando una gran fiesta en Manhattan para celebrar su cumpleaños número 50, el próximo año. Será, según deseos de la diva pop, una fiesta sin precedentes en Central Park, en Nueva York, para festejar su medio siglo el 16 de agosto de 2008. "Una de las ideas que a ella le encantaría llevar a cabo es dar un concierto en Central Park el día de su cumpleaños", declaró una fuente allegada al diario The Sun. Según la fuente, a Madonna "no le gusta envejecer", sin embargo "no hay nada que pueda hacer para pretender que no cumple años", agregó.
A popstar Madonna completará 49 anos no próximo dia 16, mas já pensa na festa de meio século no ano que vem. De acordo com o tablóide inglês The Sun desta segunda-feira, a estrela planeja realizar uma grande festa em Nova York em 2008. Madonna demonstrou a vontade de festejar com um show no Central Park, em Nova York, segundo a agência Ansa "Uma das idéias que ela adoraria realizar é a de fazer um show no Central Park no dia de seu aniversário", declarou uma fonte próxima à cantora. "Ela teve essa idéia e a discutiu como uma possibilidade séria". Segundo a mesma fonte, Madonna "não gosta de envelhecer". "No entanto, não há nada que possa fazer para tentar não fazer aniversário", brincou. A cantora, casada com o cineasta britânico Guy Ritchie, tem três filhos: Lourdes de dez anos, Rocco de sete e o adotado David Banda de dois anos.

I have never been to New York but I think that what Central Park is for NY, Stromovka park is for Prague.Stromovka is a wonderful place to spend a sunny weekend with friends or all by yourself. It is like a little green heaven inside Prague. You can play various games, ride a horse, ride a bike, skateboard or roller-skates, rest on the grass, under a tree, near a pond, near a fountain. You can do anything what would charge your inner energy.There's are a lot of foreigners spending their time in Stromovka. It's partly because Stromovka is close to Letna and a lot of foreigners lives at Letna :)
Card no. 36 - photosSpend Sunday afternoon like a native, enjoying a bit of tame nature in the company of strangers.Begin at Central Park West and West 81st Street (B or C train to West 81st Street). Cross Central Park West and follow the footpath as it forks to the right toward Park Drive. Beware of speeding bikers bearing down on your left and cross to the other side. At the top of the incline, the Delacorte Theater, home of Shakespeare in the Park, is on your right, the Great Lawn on your left. As you stroll the perimeter of the lawn, note the small plaques that ring it, memorials to friends and relatives who loved the park, and each representing a hefty donation to the Central Park Conservancy. Arriving back at the Delacorte, retrace your steps in the direction of the drive, turning left up the steps that lead to Belvedere Castle, the park's highest point, by way of Shakespeare Garden. From the back side of the castle, follow the path that turns left and runs alongside Turtle Pond

I remember the day we went to the zoo it was soooooooo freaking cold, my friend promised me that he'd either take me to the cloisters or the zoo. It was a weekend and surely one of those days where you'd just like be cozy on your couch with a hot mug and read a book or watch a movie....or rather just sleep in. So thanks heaps to him for bracing the cold with me, it was lovely too hehe...The main reason i wanted to go because i heard that they had snow monkeys and I've always wanted to see a snow monkey ever since I saw pictures of them relaxing in hot springs in Japan (+ I had an obsession of everything Japanese back in high school)...they're soooo cute! Unfortunately this photo below is all i can show....mainly because they were also soooo cold that they went into hiding! I had a glimpse of them tho.....but still that wasn't satisfactory!why can't u guys be more brave and come out for me...=(Oh well, it was a small zoo, but very nice nonetheless!

Central Park Village changes plansCouncil approval is needed for fewer homes, more retail space.By JANET ZINKPublished June 8, 2007TAMPA - Changes in the real estate market and the prospect of property tax cuts have forced the developers of Central Park Village to modify their plans for remaking an old public housing complex between downtown and Ybor City.Most significant, Bank of America wants the option to replace up to 680 condominiums with hotels, retail stores and office space. "We want the flexibility to respond to the market," said Roxanne Amoroso, senior vice president of community development banking for Bank of America.That could mean a loss of about 68 affordable homes that were to be developed and sold on the 28-acre property. It is zoned for up to 2,000 units. Original plans called for 1,100 condominiums."That's heavy with all that's happened in the market over the last 18 months," Amoroso said.More than 3,000 condominiums are finished or being built in and around downt

Last fall I spent some time in Central Park, New York City, taking photos. I was entranced by the beautiful warm autumn colours, the clear cool air, the super sharp light and the continual flow of people walking, cycling, playing sports, sightseeing, busking and so much more.
