A Walk Around Gov­er­nors Island

[cap­tion id=“attachment_4186” align=“aligncenter” width=“468” caption=“A view of the Har­bor from Water Taxi Beach on the Island’s north shore (pho­to by Michael Apple­ton, from nytimes​.com)”][/​caption] Spring is in the air today on Gov­er­nors Island. The snow has most­ly melt­ed, the air is warmer and the Urban Assem­bly New York Har­bor School stu­dents are enjoy­ing their out­door bas­ket­ball court. You can even more eas­i­ly imag­ine the Island with thou­sands of vis­i­tors, bicy­cles and pic­nick­ers. Ear­li­er this week, The New York Times took a walk around the Island and noticed the first signs of spring. Check out their great slideshow with images of the Island.
