Continuing down Broadway, past Nagle, here's Bennett Avenue which curves off Broadway and then runs parallel to it. I was sure surprised to see this wall of rock. You might say stupefied. The rock side of the street is at the southern end of Fort Tryon Park.

And this is farther down the block, between 192nd and 190th Streets. You understand, this is just a regular old Manhattan street with standard apartment buildings on the other side.

And I like the way, in the topmost photo, the rock thrusts one way and, counter to that movement, the shadow, going the other way.
I read somewhere that Manhattan is one giant granite outcrop. That is why they can build so many ultra-tall skyscrapers in such a small area. One never expects to see scenes like this in NY. Beautiful!
