Years back that building had been the Long Island City Holiday Inn, though after the pandemic it never bounced back and since mid-2020 it has been closed and shuttered. Curious to see what it'll become next

One of today's Amazon deliveries. The leftmost item is a pasta fork, which by the way, doubles as an excellent back scratcher. If you're ever in need. Thankfully I already have another one for that specific purpose

This pre-war, historic and landmarked Beaux-Arts apartment/co-op conversion was originally built in 1904, and sits across from Riverside Park South at the western tip of west 72nd Street on Manhattan's upper west side. John E. Scharsmith had been the principle architect.

From Wikipedia
John E. Scharsmith was an American architect of Swiss extraction with a practice in New York City. Having served with a New York regiment in the American Civil War, by the turn of the 20th century, with offices at 1 Madison Avenue, he was responsible for several landmarked apartment blocks in Beaux-Arts style, such as The Hohenzollern, West End Avenue and 84th Street (1902), and The Chatsworth Apartments, 344 West 72nd Street, (1902–04, Annex, 1905–06),[2] and for the eight-storey apartment block, 425 West End Avenue, at 72nd Street (1905). He designed the neo-Gothic Swiss House, 37 West 67th Street (1906–07), built for the Swiss Benevolent Society as a home for aged Swiss, one among a group of artists' studio buildings on that block being constructed at the time by various firms.
His office also provided designs for less ambitious projects, such as the Fort Tryon Apartments, northeast corner of St. Nicholas Avenue and 180th Street (for Moersh & Wille, 1907) the pair of 6-storey brick and stone apartment houses at the northwest corner of St Nicholas Avenue and 163rd Street and southwest corner of 164th Street (1908)[6] or stables he built on West 151st Street just west of Convent Avenue, for John Quinn (1897). Scharsmith designed the extant block of Renaissance Revival rowhouses at 449-459 Convent Avenue, near 150th Street (1896–97). Some of his other early rowhouses include the nine 3-storey brick dwellings 503-519 West 173rd St near Amsterdam Avenue (1896-1897).

Philately is the study of postage stamps and postal history. It also refers to the collection and appreciation of stamps and other philatelic products. While closely associated with stamp collecting and the study of postage, it is possible to be a philatelist without owning any stamps. For instance, the stamps being studied may be very rare or reside only in museums.

Rice Thief 간장 게장 (which Google Translator says means 'Soy Crab') the new establishment at this address is going to make a small fortune, as over the past several years now my neighborhood has seen a huge influx of Asian citizens moving into the area. Plus, Butterfield Market will soon open a location directly across 30th Street from Rice Thief in the Rise condo building (reflected in the marble)

Another one bites the dust. Mike's Pizza is now permanently closed. It was certainly the oddest location for a pizza parlor.
It took me a second to comprehend what I was actually looking at, as the mural is cut off by the wall, though completed in the reflections.

After another long, productive day, a treat! I got to walk home. Today, I was listening to Manu Shrine. A recent discovery along my quest for the ultimate music which can accompany me while either reading, journaling, editing photos, meditating or whilst walking to/fro my office

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" is a popular adage from William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet, in which Juliet seems to argue that it does not matter that Romeo is from her family's rival house of Montague.
The reference is used to state that the names of things do not affect what they really are. This formulation is, however, a paraphrase of Shakespeare's actual language. Juliet compares Romeo to a rose saying that if he were not named Romeo he would still be handsome and be Juliet's love. This states that if he were not Romeo, then he would not be a Montague and she would be able to marry him without hindrances.

They're constructing yet another public storage building on Northern Blvd. As for the other two, I have never seen anyone, ever, go inside either one. And I walk past this area twice per day.
