See The Light

(South Street – Photos by Joe) The five of us all gazed at a blue neon glow that was brightest by the Fish Market Restaurant on South Street. I shuffled my feet, blinked, squinted, and pretended to look real hard. Don’t know if the shuffling of the feet worked, but I did my best not to [...]

Keeping Secrets

(South Street across from The Paris Cafe – Photos by Joe) “Where your treasure is, there will your heart also be.”                       Luke 12:34   – Believe me, I don’t give away all of NYC’s secrets. Especially those associated with that block of small brick buildings on South St. between Beekman St. and Peck Slip. At one end are vacant [...]

Walking on Greenwich Ave from 6th Ave to 7th Ave S

(Tiles For America, Greenwich Ave & 7th Ave S – Photos by Joe) Photos are in the order of my footsteps. I like the idea of snapping pics away as I walk up a street. Expect to see a lot more of these types of picture posts. Here are my STORIES and PHOTOS

Rockefeller Center

(Photos by Joe) As a kid I can remember going to Rockefeller Center during the Christmas Season. So it’s interesting to note that no matter what time of year, I can’t pass through here without picturing the huge tree and all the angels they set out. There are a few pics of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral. That’s [...]

91.5 FM KEXP – Great Radio Station
