Metropolitan Opera House, Lincoln Center, NYC


Yesterday I met some friends for brunch at Landmarc in the time warner building. Afterwards we took a stroll in the rain over to the Lincoln Center. I couldn’t resist walking past the lobby of the Metropolitan Opera House to glimpse the Marc Chagall paintings, and the Austrian crystal chandeliers. While reminiscing about my experiences at the Ballet and Opera it occurred to me that amid performances I have also frequented this area to view the Christmas tree lights, and attend swing dancing, jazz and street fair events. This truly is one of my favorite spots in Manhattan. The complex is located at Columbus Avenue between 62nd and 65th Streets.

The Dakota, NYC


The last few days were spent cat sitting, Theo, for friends. I relished waking up in their Upper West Side flat and then walking to work! On the way I passed by the Dakota Apartment building located on Central Park West and 72nd Street. Crowned with a steeply pitched slate and copper roof,  this terracotta beauty stood apart as a wintertime jewel.
