I laughed when I saw this today whilst in Jackson Heights, and I immediately thought of you. Oddly I thought your original had been snapped in the Bronx.

For the past 2-years I've been photographing the back of this new building most mornings whist walking to work, and decided to take the train home one day so I could capture the front piece prior to the building's completion. Crazy. I'm just so used to looking at it from one side only

Fountain, Courthouse Square, Long Island City, Queens, NYC

 

Notice the light on the front of the fountain. That's a reflection from the myriad of nearby glass towers. No longer are they constructing new buildings of brick. Only steel and glass. If you venture into Manhattan on a sunny day, you'll notice squares of reflected light projected all over the place. Only us photographers would take notice of such a thing

I've taken to calling Queens Plaza The Wild West as drivers will run red lights, race down the bike lane, over curbs and down sidewalks, and all in the interest of passing the regular traffic in order to get to the 59th Street bridge, over the East River and into Manhattan. It literally is, The Wild West.

Deere & Company, doing business as John Deere, is an American corporation that manufactures agricultural machinery, heavy equipment, forestry machinery, diesel engines, drivetrains (axles, transmissions, gearboxes) used in heavy equipment and lawn care equipment. It also provides financial services and other related activities.

-

History (definitely worth a read)

Deere & Company began when John Deere, born in Rutland, Vermont, United States, on February 7, 1804, moved to Grand Detour, Illinois, in 1836, to escape bankruptcy in Vermont. Already an established blacksmith, Deere opened a 1,378-square-foot (128 m2) shop in Grand Detour in 1837, which allowed him to serve as a general repairman in the village, as well as a manufacturer of tools such as pitchforks and shovels. Tools were just a start; the item that set him apart was the self-scouring steel plow, which was pioneered in 1837 when John Deere fashioned a Scottish steel saw blade into a plow. Prior to Deere's steel plow, most farmers used iron or wooden plows to which the rich Midwestern soil stuck, so they had to be cleaned frequently. Deere created a highly polished steel surface that allowed the soil to slide easily. This tool addressed the difficulty of tilling the Prairie State's soil and greatly aided migration into the American Great Plains in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

A Home for Film, Media, & the Visual Arts

 

Opened in 2009 after being re-envisioned by celebrated designer Milton Glaser and a team of architects and artists, SVA Theatre has become a world-class facility, specializing in the projected image, as well as seminars, lectures, and other presentations, many of which are free and open to the public.

 

The SVA Theatre is widely known for Milton Glaser’s iconic kinetic sculpture atop the marquee, which comes to life every hour on the hour. Inside, the elegant lobby leads to two auditoriums, Silas and Beatrice (named for SVA’s founder and his wife), which seat a total of 745 guests.

 

Originally opened in 1963 as the RKO 23rd Street, the building’s prior tenants have included both cinematic and performing arts organizations, most notably Broadway’s Roundabout Theatre Company, and played host to hundreds of artistic events over the years.

 

The SVA Theatre continues that tradition by hosting a variety of events year-round, both private and public. In addition to serving the needs of the School of Visual Arts, it is available to the community at large. We welcome you to attend our public events and to rent the space for your event needs.

...According to the records of the Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church, we know that some Ukrainians lived in Astoria before 1900. More Ukrainan Catholics settled in Astoria, noticeably after 1910, when the Subway Line was extended into Long Island. Lacking a parish of their own, they became parishioners of St. George's Church in Lower Manhattan or Holy Ghost Church in Brooklyn.

My mother had never bought these cookies for me, my four siblings or our father. I suppose it must have been a collective agreement how nobody liked them. They're good crushed up in ice cream, though.
