After giving it much thought, I have decided to post photos here based on year they were taken. I was contemplating transferring the photos by topic but I find it too complicated.
I will post photos on this page from the following pages of old site - W4, B5 and part of F5.
Walking across the Williamsburg Bridge
November 4, 2014
I started the trek on the Manhattan Side. Delancey and Clinton Streets
Someone being creative??
At the center of the bridge, the walkway splits into 2, right side for pedestrians & left for bikers.
Bikers on the left, pedestrians on the right. Used as opening photo.
Above traffic: Left for bikers, right for pedestrians.

I was close to West 37th Street Sea Gate community is at the end of the boardwalk
Proud to be Puerto Rican!!
Planes carrying banners flew by constantly. My favorite banner? "Beach you have my money." An ad from a financial institution.
The fishermen on the breakwater.

Coney Island - Taken from inside the F train on my way back to Queens.
On August 23rd, I visited the Shore Promenade (Shore Park) in Brooklyn. The pedestrian/bicycle promenade extends from the American Veterans Memorial Pier (69th Street pier) to the Bensonhurst Park. I took the R train to the 95th Street Station (last stop) and walked down 4th Avenue and into the park. While in the park the NCL Breakaway (NYC) and the Celebrity Summit (Bayonne, NJ) sailed by.

If one is on the top deck of the ship (usually Lido or higher) when sailing under the bridge, one feels as if the top of the ship will hit the bottom of the bridge
