These 2 photo’s shows how these three major bridges connects the borough of Brooklyn into the borough of Manhattan and vice versa over the East River. See map for reference.
Domino Park in the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn. The Williamsburg Bridge is in the foreground, Manhattan Bridge in the middle ground and the Brooklyn Bridge in the background. Right across the East River is East River Park (parallel to FDR Drive) in Lower Manhattan.
Lower Manhattan, Two Bridges neighborhood (East River Greenway/parallel to Franklin Roosevelt Drive) view of both bridge’s looking towards Dumbo neighborhood in Brooklyn. To your left is the Manhattan Bridge, the middle section is DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) and to the right is the Brooklyn Bridge.

Adding this for context to the photo’s above. I mentioned Domino Park in Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn. This is the original location of the Domino Sugar Refinery! This was built in July 1883 (the original building burnt down in 1882) and it functioned until 2004. City Landmarked and Exterior Landmarked- so the exterior cannot be changed, so it is being redeveloped that will have an interior and glass structure being built inside of the brick facade. Offices and shops on the bottom floor. This is an 11 acre park development.
I lived in Indiana for 6 years...I say that's SOYBEAN!
Here's my random picture of the day. A 12 foot tall bandsaw for cutting THICK sections of steel. Captured on my trip to a New Jersey metal shop
I love it when they repurpose these old buildings.
Was running to catch my train and found this gem of a mural out of thousand pieces of mosaics in a Subway Station adjacent to a toll booth (14th Street/1st Avenue) in a very obscure area. Color palette is definitely inspired by Van Gogh.

I'm always amazed at God's creation. Found these shark teeth and arrow heads in north central Mississippi. Never know what you'll find when out turkey hunting.

If that was in Nashville, there'd be a bachelorette party going on in it!
I told the help not to let you in my house.
Dog found a new stick.
Mine would want to bring it in the house as well
Dogs are sneaky smart. What he's really doing is bringing you wood so you can spend your money on treats instead.
Mine aren’t allowed in the house.
The sticks?
Doesn’t look like Wisconsin to me! Chuck
