Earlier this week I ran an easy loop of Prospect Park. I stopped an took a photo of a tree. Today my route was considerably more urban. I did not just run over the Brooklyn and Williamsburg Bridges, but I ran under both ends of them as well. I also ran under both ends of the Manhattan Bridge.
But from the Williamsburg Bridge I saw some cool graffiti
Here is what the corner of Wythe and South 6 looked to Google some time in the past

Here is what it looked like today

Even closer
This is the work of Icy and Sot and a little research found that it was painted in June
Across the street has not changed since Google was there
That was fun...I've always enjoyed Google Street View, even a couple of years ago when I decided to "walk" past our house and back, and discovered the camera had caught me outside in my pajamas. Fortunately, I wear very respectable pajamas.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the photo, too, with all the different faces looking up. More than just graffiti, I'd say. But my favorite part was in Street View, seeing the bridge, then the road under the bridge.
Good luck with the NYC Marathon. Some days I can't even drive 20 miles, never mind walk or run.

Kay, The Google car just added Street View for Prospect Park. I will add it to my post so you can "take a loop" of the park.
