We stayed in the city this weekend because Tim was heading off to Phoenix for work. Trying to get back to the new normal. We decided to venture out for lunch and a little local sight seeing. Hudson Yards opened up and there is this beautiful structure in the middle of what is a total circus of un-remarkable architecture. The Vessel is this gorgeous outdoor, interactive sculpture. It is a large honeycomb styled vase with stairs everywhere to wander around and look at the views. It's a shame that you are looking at a mall and unremarkable glass office buildings but the concept is beautiful. There were so many people everywhere and it is unimaginable buying a condo here and trying to live with the crowds.
We went and had lunch and did some shopping and then came back to our apartment and went upstairs to the rooftop for some sun and peace and quiet. It was such a beautiful afternoon. The view looks out over what used to be my view when I first moved to NYC. I live only 4 blocks from my first apartment. After a lovely day, we decided to go have a nice meal at one of our favorite restaurants - Haru on 43rd St. Crispy Brussels sprouts, cauliflower tempura, sushi and leech martinis. It was delicious. We walked home and crashed. Baby steps.
