This is from the Roosevelt Island Tram as it nears the Manhattan Island station. I don’t recall the exact ave. (E. 60th St.), but this view is looking northward on the East Side. I carry a small digital voice recorder with me, but I tend to use it to remind myself of general geographical areas that I have shot in during the course of a day. I probably should consider using it for the details as well.

Some images taken on the Roosevelt Island Tram, looking northward through the glass of the tram. Above the East River you see Roosevelt Island on the right side and Midtown Manhattan on the left. It was a fun ride and if you have a valid Metro Card that is all you need. DSC_7888-001 DSC_7887-001

Roosevelt Island Tram

Roosevelt Island Tram traveling over the East River. Looking west towards Manhattan and the Ed Koch Queensborough Bridge. In the top photo you can barely see the red tram station at 59th st. Station. Bottom: tram pulling into the station on Roosevelt Island. Normally I am phobic regarding heights, but I rode the tram from Roosevelt Island back to Manhattan and had not issues. Will be posting some of the fun tram photos in the near future.
