I am loving my new Canon Power Shot S95 Camera. It takes the most amazing pictures… Walking home last night I was able to grab the last bit of daylight into night at the magnificent Lincoln Center.
Here is a bit of history. On May 14, 1959, United States President Dwight D. Eisenhower stood near Broadway and 64th Street and broke ground on Manhattan’s Upper West Side for Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, hailing it as a “great cultural adventure.” Envisioned as the largest and most ambitious of any performing arts complex in the world, Lincoln Center was considered a radical idea at the time, since the plan called for both educational and performing arts institutions in one location. The Center grew out of an unprecedented public, private, and artistic partnership that began in 1955 after the Lincoln Square area was designated for urban renewal.
How magical is that on a warm summer night 50 years later it is filled with families enjoying the night air, couples attending the ballet and wanderers like me drinking it all in!
