Inspired by the book "Letter from New York" by Helene Hanff, this is a space to share the quotidian aspects of this unique city I’ve lived in for over a decade. It's meant to catalog my favorite "city living" stories, share travels near and far, and display photos of places I love.

Ashbury Heights
One of my favorite ways to walk home is via Ashbury Street. There are beautiful homes in this area which happily was developed by a woman named Mary Fritz, in the 1880's, and her son Frederick (hence the name Frederick Street that plays a prominent role in this neighborhood). The fact that a woman may have had a hand in the beauty of my walk home makes me feel good.
Especially intriguing to me are these curving roof lines, that can be seen in the photo above, on a house right around Piedmont Street.
