Good afternoon! Wishing you a happy Thursday, August 8th, 2019 from all of us at Viewing NYC!
Here's what the weather looks like in the City right now.
In this short video from video producer Jan Somma-Hammel for the Staten Island Advance, learn all about the history and origin of the Staten Island neighborhood of Lighthouse Hill.
Lighthouse Hill took its current name when the Staten Island Range Light was built there in 1912.
If you go to Brooklyn Heights and take a stroll down Joralemon Street towards the waterfront, and if you are observant of your surroundings, you will come across a strange townhouse at number 58 that will look a little out of place. The windows are opaque, the door is boarded up, and there are several pipes sticking up out of what should be a basement courtyard. In this short video from CityXcape, learn about this strange building, and how the MTA uses it for subway ventilation.
Viewing NYC is a site that features videos and photos of the art, comedy, culture, food, history and events of New York City.
