Day 352 of 365

Jefferson Market tower

Just to make sure I see as much of the city at Christmas as I can, I took the PATH to 9th St. instead of Christopher as usual and walked up Greenwich Ave. One of the first things that caught my eye at the corner of 6th Ave. and 9th St. was the shooting stars on the lamp posts along the avenue. The Jefferson Market tower made for a rather obvious framing option.

Day 82 of 365

Jefferson Market Courthouse

Exited the PATH at 9th St. again today and was greeted at street level with the late light of afternoon. Across the street, the Jefferson Market Library (nee Courthouse) captured the rays, enhancing the deep, rich, red brick. It made for a great contrast against the deepening blue sky.

It has a fascinating history. More stories and photos.
