To celebrate its 125th anniversary this year, the New York Public Library is releasing a list of most checked-out books in its history. Topping the list is the children’s book The Snowy Day by Brooklyn-native Ezra Jack Keats, which has been checked out more than 485,000 times since it was originally published in 1962.
Good afternoon! Wishing you a happy Tuesday, January 14th, 2020 from all of us at Viewing NYC!
Here's what the weather looks like in the City right now.
As Freshkills Park undergoes its long transformation from landfill to public greenspace, access remains limited and it can be challenging to convey to the public all of the things going on inside the park’s boundaries. The Freshkills Park Development team has created an interactive map to serve as a virtual tour of the park project. The map includes information, photos, and video related to the history of the site, its landfill-to-park transformation, park design, recreation opportunities, scientific research, artistic projects, and the site’s ecology.
Head over to the announcement page to learn more about the interactive map.
