Twitter user @BestCityPix recently uploaded this amazing aerial shot of the dense Upper West Side on one half, and Central Park strikingly lush on the other. The contrast between

Elsewhere across the five boroughs, “New York City was a town in low gear,” as temperatures seemed to linger in the 90s without any respite in sight.
