Collaboration with Tim #22 - Park Avenue

Spring on Park Avenue is always worth a look.  And since it's not only part of the neighborhood but also on the way to Central Park, I enjoy it yearly.

This photo was taken in 2021, which was a particularly great year for spring trees.  I really appreciated it as I was newly vaccinated and while I was going outside for long walks, I continued to shun the subway for a few more months until the vaccination rates improved.

 

I suspect Tim's art was done from a summer shot, 

 

but I couldn't resist the urge to combine it with a spring photo.

Park Avenue

 

As soon as I started seeing pics of the apple and cherry trees on Park Avenue blooming on Instagram 

I knew the clock was ticking.  

The good news about how cold it has been this spring is it means that the flowering trees bloom slower and stay pretty longer.  

But it's still always a race to see if I can get free time on a sunny day so I can head out and check out the scene.  

Every year the folks on Park Avenue decide what color tulips to plant.  

This year they picked a white tulip with a hint of pink.  

Very classy.  

I recently learned that the name Manhattan came from the Lenape word Manahatta which means - many hills.  

I thought of that and smiled when I headed toward the peak at 68th Street.  

 

It gives you a different view of avenue.
