I’m guessing Eric R Thornton is off in search of some scrap waiting in
the Bronx maybe?
It’s been a long while since I’ve seen Penn No. 6, and here she and Normandy are made up to Penn No. 121. See those four shore cranes against the sky? Here’s a post I did on them almost a decade ago.
Here’s B. No. 250 eastbound for the Sound, with
Evening Star in the notch.
Some people would be pleased with this juxtaposition: MTA’s Highbridge Yard, with Harbor II, MetroNorth, and the 44th Precinct Police Station!
Barbara Ann holds station at the University Heights Bridge, with the unmistakeable Hall of Fame for Great Americans dome over the treeline. That’s a place I’ve yet to visit, one of many places in the five boros.
Ditto . . . Ireland on the north side of that bridge.
And to conclude for another day . . . it’s Penn No. 91 with
Skipjack in the notch.

Hall of Fame. Well worth the visit. I’d go again for a Bronx walking tour on a Friday in the Fall.

You’re on then, Daniel. It’s one item on a long list of places I’ve never gotten to.

We start at the Manhattan end of the High Bridge aqueduct.
