Photo of the Day: NY Harbor, Viewed From Vesey Street


Last week, on a retail tour of Lower Manhattan, my group stopped for a discussion in a building high above Vesey Street. We were delighted by the view of the Hudson River and beyond—especially since, less than 24 hours before, we would have seen the most common precipitation event of this season (the so-called “wintry mix”) at full blast outside the windows.

I felt the immediate need to document the brightness of what felt like a spring day so quickly after this winter nastiness. Watery, sunlit views like this are a reminder of why so many New Yorkers (or those nearby, like me) are drawn back repeatedly to the city, despite its enduring problems.
