Around and Above Harlem

I happened to be out and about and snapped a few pictures around 110 Street.  I'm lucky to live in a neighborhood/community with such great parks and cultural assets.

Often times I take for granted what an artistically beautiful area it is.  I have Marcus Garvey and Morningside Parks to my East and West.  In addition, St. Nicholas Park is just to the north and Central Park to the South.

This year I planned to take more picture but due to a huge technical difficulty I haven't taken as many pictures as planned.

We are also blessed to have many pocket and community parks that themselves provide a place or refuge from the stress of the big city such as the Children's Sculpture Garden
