Early Tuesday Morning in Bay Ridge: After Hurricane Sandy at the Narrows and the Verrazano Bridge

We survived the brunt of Hurricane Sandy in Bay Ridge without a loss of power. Going out at 8 a.m. to the walkway across the empty Belt Parkway by Gravesend Bay, the Narrows and the Brooklyn side of the closed Verrazano Bridge, the waters were angry and choppy.

When we got there it was close to high tide and the waters started going over the rail but it was raining lightly. It started to rain hard.

Here are some pics we took of the parkway entrance and Shore Road on our way back home.

Saturday Morning in Crown Heights: Awaiting Hurricane Sandy at the President Street Subway Station

At 7 a.m., on our way to teach at the fabulous Fashion Institute of Technology, we saw that the New York City subway system is already awaiting the arrival of Hurricane Sandy.
