The image is a vintage postcard depicting the Soldiers' and Sailors Monument located at Riverside Drive in New York. The monument features an imposing neoclassical structure with four large columns supporting a tall, round tower capped by a dome or rotunda-like top section that includes steps leading up to it. An American flag flutters atop a long pole beside the building, indicating its patriotic significance. In front of and around the monument are several elements: rows of benches for visitors' rest; well-maintained green lawns with trees in full leaf suggesting spring or summer season; children playing on the grounds which adds life to an otherwise solemn site.

@AccordionBruce @cpm @TheWarOnCars Started listening to the this on Patreon. I realize I engage in #VehicularCycling on #RiversideDrive where its two lanes and cars sometimes honk but always go around me. It still needs a bike lane. No reason why it needs to be two lanes. If Forrester had ever bicycled in Harlem he would not be known as the father of Vehicular Cycling. He would likely have died in a collision with a car. Likely a BMW too.

#Riversidedrive #Newyork

The image features a vintage postcard depicting a serene park scene. At the center, a path winds through a grassy area with trees lining it. People are strolling along this pathway, adding a sense of life and movement to the tranquil setting. The backdrop showcases a body of water, possibly a lake or river, which extends towards the horizon where a bridge is visible. The architecture of the bridge suggests it might be located in an urban area. There are also buildings on the other side of the water, indicating that this park is part of a larger cityscape. The sky above is clear and blue, suggesting it's a bright and sunny day. The overall impression is one of leisure and relaxation, a place where people can enjoy nature amidst the backdrop of an urban environment. The postcard has been edited with a filter that gives it a faded look, adding to its vintage charm.

#Grantstomb #Riversidedrive #Newyork

The image displays a vintage postcard featuring an illustration of the Washington Monument in its early construction phase. The monument is depicted as a large, circular structure with scaffolding around it. At the base of the structure, there are people and horse-drawn carriages, indicating that this was likely taken from a later period when the monument was complete and open to the public. The Washington Monument stands prominently in the foreground, while other monuments can be seen in the background. The sky is clear with no visible clouds, suggesting fair weather conditions. The ground appears to be paved or cobblestone, typical of historical sites. At the bottom of the postcard, there's a handwritten note in ink that seems to be a personal message, possibly indicating a visit by the sender or recipient of the postcard. However, due to the resolution and size of the text, it is not possible to transcribe the specific content of the note.
