5 Minutes in Brooklyn: The Garden Pier in Red Hook

Today, Lupe relaxed at the end of the Garden Pier, in Red Hook. The pier is just across the small inlet of water that separates the pier from Fairway Supermarket, right next to the The Waterfront Museum. Enjoy the view.

Queens Museum for a Day

Actually, it was more like an afternoon. The museum houses a wonderful scale model of the entire city presented at the 1964 World’s Fair. After the fair, “The Panorama of the City of New York” was used by Robert Moses in his citywide planning efforts. You can see his housing projects colored orange throughout the model. I remember my grandfather taking me here thirty year’s ago. Wow.

Looks like Tribe Called Quest likes to get down every once in awhile in Queens and Brooklyn, too.

Here’s to a Great Summer of Biking Ahead

Can you feel it? Can you feel the renaissance happening?

Having already knocked out the 5-Boro Bike Tour(click here for one man’s account), I am seriously excited about riding around the city this year. I might even take in a Critical Mass event.

I sincerely hope we can avoid any major accidents here in Brooklyn this year. Check out Bike Commute Tips for helpful reminders on safety.

Knock on wood, but I think this is going to be the best biking Summer yet.
