the broadway beach

Broadway, yes "The" Broadway, now converted to an outdoor parkland of sorts.
Photographed from 40th Street, looking uptown towards Times Square.

If you have not been to NYC in awhile, you may be surprised to find that Broadway, between 18th and 42nd Streets, has been converted to an outdoor cafe of sorts. I can't explain it. People seem to really enjoy relaxing at the cafe tables, amongst the potted plants, despite the truck fumes. Hmm.
