A Weekend In Manhattan - Photo Essay!

Central Park is beautiful every season of the year but it was particularly lovely this weekend as temperatures warmed but snow still covered the ground against a magnificent blue sky that showcased Manhattan's gleaming skyscrapers, including several new additions.

The Central Park Boathouse, one of our favorite spots is always a great place for brunch and the view of the lake and the city beyond is enchanting!

When you look at this photo (taken from our 29th floor hotel room) you can see why they call Broadway "the Great White Way."

New York at night? It's absolutely bejeweled!

 At Lincoln's Center's Avery Fisher Hall (above and below) we enjoyed
Harry Connick, Jr. in concert - a sold-out event!

 At The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts we enjoyed 
Sinatra: An American Icon, an exhibition chronicling the life of Frank Sinatra
and including his trademark fedora (above) and Grammy Awards.

And then there was this added bonus on view: The barbershop chair, desk, easel and supplies that the legendary Al Hirschfeld used to create his iconic Broadway caricatures.
