Roosevelt Island

We arrived by tram…. The only one in the city and connected to the subway system ….. it’s a picturesque ride to the island….. the “town” on the island has grown quite a bit since our last visit….  The Four Freedoms Park on the southern tip with the bust of Roosevelt at the end is still striking….  On the walk we passed the deserted smallpox hospital, an old church, a technical school and several different playgrounds …..But the real highlight of any visit is the view back to Manhattan....
