Weir is Back




















The work on the Green-Wood Cemetery visitor building is certainly taking its time, but I see the sign is back on top of the renovated greenhouse dome.  No McGovern here, as in recent years,



















but just the Weir.  Complete with weather-vane, it looks just like the one P.L.Sperr photographed in 1941.

How fun seeing the overhead trolley power lines and tracks in the older pic.

Yes, a lot of the old lines were disappearing right around this time. But, most important, congratulations on rogerpaw.com! I'm so glad you've done this. It looks beautiful, and now it's even better following the adventures of the Washington Square Park hawks!

Aww, thanks so much! :-D I've been a longtime 'lurker' of your site. I'm glad you're still updating it. It's a shame about BeTheBQE ending its run.

I miss Be the BQE too.
