I would never think this to be NYC.

Great color, great detail. This was shot with a nice camera, I'll bet.

Ah, this is one of your movie-set scenes. At least for me.

Inviting street. Who knew there was a street in NYC called a "lane"?

Please post a photo of Minetta Garden!I saw it in March but it must be looking very pretty now. I think green spaces are so precious in any big city like New York.So how about some summer garden shots?

Thanks for all the kind comments, everyone. FYI, around the turn of the last century Minetta Lane was full of brothels. Dock workers and sailors from the nearby port (Hudson five minutes walk)ended their nights "strolling the lane...."

Very nice! And I wonder if Minetta Tavern is still there. I remember going there in the 70s.
