Bikes in Prospect Park...
A cricket game biscected by a kite string...
A kite aloft! While I was in the park, cops on motorscooters came by, and wer easking everyone flying kites to reel them in some... seems they were interfering with the radar swath from JFK airport, who had just called and asked them to go around the park and remind the kite flyers that this is a common problem!
Picnic with kites, flying toys and cellphones...
Prepping the kite...
...getting it airborne

I love how the parks and squares really are used by neighbor residents in New York. I wish more people in DC did. Rather they are merely havens for the homeless.

things are so compressed here, residentially and socially, that the parks are some of the only large, open spaces to do anything outdoors. theyre kept up well enough, and are constantly filled with all sorts of people doing a million different things, especially on the weekends. though the photos above were made on a monday afternoon. i love prospect park.

Peter, great job on the park. It's been many years since I was there. Let's see, yes, when Ebets Field was still there. I often went to see Robinson and Snyder play ball and then go to the park for a run.

I was walking down Park Place between Underhill and Vanderbilt in Prospect Heights just now and saw a crowd of people around a car. I of course rubber necked it on my way by and saw a brand new Infiniti...
