It’s so easy to get lost in research. In fact, I’m going to dive right back in. But I wanted to post this picture I took of 50th Street, off Beekman Place. It was such a lush, pretty block. I walked back down it a couple of hours later, when it was night, and the block felt positively enchanting. I made a little movie, but it didn’t come out alas. But I think you can imagine it, from this picture.
