The Willis Avenue Bridge, on the Harlem River

Bridge, East River
Photo by myself, on the Harlem River.

The Willis Avenue of the many bridges connected to Manhattan.

The Manhattan, Brooklyn and George Washington Bridges are by far the most known. The Willis Avenue bridge is small in comparison, connecting Manhattan to the Bronx.

Manhattan is to the left, out of frame, here. I was on a boat going downstream on the water. The sun was setting and the sky was gorgeous.

Happy Thursday, everyone!

Thanks everyone!

I was in a large boat that looked like a yacht, for our office summer party. We took a trip up the Hudson River and then down the East River to see the sun set against the Statue of Liberty.

We were lucky to have near perfect weather, until the very end.

There are many boat rides available for visitors. I haven't taken any though so I can't recommend any one in particular.
