Battery Park Memorials

Manhattan, New York City, NY, USA
From Battery Park Lunch
This week my temp agency sent me to work at One Battery Park Plaza, and lunch this week went best with the view from Battery Park.

This flower garden is actually a memorial to the victims of 9/11, as explained by a small plaque at one end of the sidewalk that runs through this wildflower explosion. It's exactly the kind of understated memorial for peaceful contemplation that I can really get behind.

The sunlight was soothing, the flowers beautiful, the boats passing by just what a sailor loves, the butterflies entertaining and the photography soothing. All that, and an income, too! Temping is not a bad way to pay the rent!
