The Original Bash for New York's Original Parkby Amanda Gordon
To the Battery they came from the Grand Concourse, Eastern Boulevard, Governors Island, Upper Fifth and Lower Broadway. Truly, the Battery Conservancy's gala drew cultural leaders from across the city, which seemed fitting, since the Battery was the place where the New York story really began. And so for the gala, they united, to celebrate flowers, step on floor chimes, and sit on benches made out of the same granite used for the base of the Statue of Liberty. There they united to imagine just how cool the park will look when SeaGlass -- the first carousel to feature fish -- is built. More in the paper tomorrow, but for now, the complete photo album. http://www.shutterfly.com/pro/nysun/outandabout/200806121 Do you have a great Battery story? Email me at agordon@nysun.com to share.
