and reports:
I forgot how nice the walk around the point is for peaceful thinking
The yellow tape is blocking only the red wood area where they are still fixing. The bridges are open and one can walk around
There are still some finishing touches that need to be made in the area but you can finally walk to the northern tip of Roosevelt Island’s Lighthouse Park.
This is what Lighthouse Park looked like under water during Hurricane Sandy

and the washed away footbridge space
a few weeks ago.
Happy to have the Lighthouse area open to the public again.
