Exploring Upper West and Upper East

I've been exploring more of the nearby neighborhoods the past day or so. Central Park is just amazing, and I'm right near the theater where they hold Shakespeare in the Park.

It only takes me 10 minutes to run across the park to the Upper East Side, where yesterday I visited the Guggenheim Museum. With it's Frank Lloyd Wright design (currently being renovated), the museum is one of the most beautiful in the city and a true architectural masterpiece. Speaking of art, the shopping on the Upper East is pretty fancy-schmancy ;-) Take a stroll up Madison Ave. between 75th and 90th and ooooo and ahhhh at the window displays.

Take in some more views of the Park, as well as photos of a quaint bookshop on the Upper West Side and Broadway (see Bookstore Bird, above) in my photos section.
