More Sixth Boro Fifth Dimension d

Here were parts a,  b and c.   These photos taken over three decades ago capture a simpler sixth boro.

Here the magical dory is tied to Philip T. Feeney, which now languishes in a tug purgatory.   The shore of lower Manhattan also looked quite different then.  That low-slung but stately building on the other side of the river is the Custom House aka Museum of the American Indian.

Reef points and baggy wrinkle . . . this is a classy sailing dory not timid

when navigating past a tanker of yore.
