New York City was where George Washington spent the Summer of 1776. The biggest battle of the American Revolution was fought here. Later, it was our first capitol. Only fitting that our city has had the biggest USA250/July 4th celebrations this week, from Times Square down to the Battery. This will culminate this evening with fireworks on the Hudson and East Rivers. 🎇

But the 4th festivities started this morning along the Hudson with great fanfare. An International Naval Review and an International Aerial Review stretched from water to sky. A massive formation of U.S. and international fixed and rotary wing aircraft paraded over the harbor, led by the Blue Angels.

The biggest sight was the Parade of Tall Ships, with ships from around the world traveling from the Verrazzano Bridge up to the George Washington Bridge.

We viewed these festivities from historic Governors Island, a former US military and Coast Guard base, now open to the public, with many great attractions.

Happy Independence Day to all! 🗽🇺🇸

Architectural details of the Empire State Building!

This building is certainly not *as ornate* as the Chrysler Building, but is the perfect textbook Art Deco skyscraper. It is bold and expressive... but simultaneously with a streamlined, industrial design. Beautifully symmetrical, with classic NYC Deco vertical massing. And with gorgeous limestone masonry, and exterior metal elements made of steel or aluminum. And interior details showing off both the geometric and industrial inspirations for the Deco style.

Don't forget to look up in New York!

Views from the Empire State Building on a lovely June day:

1. Looking at Midtown East. Prominent buildings visible here are the new JPMorgan Chase Tower, One Vanderbilt, the MetLife Building, and the Chysler Building
2. Closeup of the top of the Chrysler Building
3. Looking north past Rockefeller Center + Billionaire's Row + Central Park, towards uptown and the Bronx.
4. Looking south toward the Flatiron Building, with its scaffolding coming down. On the left is the new in-progress residential tower that controversially blocks the previous view of Empire from the Flatiron.
5. Top of the Radiator Building (today: Bryant Park Hotel)
6. Looking west past Madison Square Garden and Penn Station, towards Hudson Yards, and then NJ.
7. Looking southeast past the Madison Square area, towards Brooklyn across the East River
8. Looking south toward the World Trade Center, the harbor, and State of Liberty.

Looking at New York from above never gets old!

The French Air Force aerobatic team, Patrouille de France, conducted a major flyover in New York City this morning, as part of their “Liberté 250” tour celebrating American independence. 🇫🇷 🇺🇸

The flyover started near the West Point military academy in the lower Hudson Valley, and then came down the river into the New York Harbor, ending by passing over the Statue of Liberty, an enduring symbol of the relationship between the United States and France. 🗽

A wonderful start to the coming America250 celebrations that will be hosted here, in our nation’s first capitol.
