The Hudson River seperates the west side of Manhattan from New Jersey. The Hudson River Greenway stretches from the George Washington Bridge to Battery Park. A portion of the greenway runs through what was once a railroad yard for the New York Central Railroad. The 69th Street Transfer Bridge is being restored.

Bicycling in New York is a great way to get around. Bike lanes on many of the streets make it that much more enjoyable. Central Park is an oasis in the middle of Manhattan that has a six mile loop for biking, running, and walking without ever having to deal with traffic.

Reading The Power Broker‍ by Robert Caro, has inspired me to write about the impact that Robert Moses had on the city. He was sworn in as New York City Parks Commissioner in January 1934. The Arsenal, at the 64th Street entrance to Central Park, is the headquarters for the NYC Parks & Recreation Department.
