Another Winter in the Books

The winds are warming, the snow is gone, and I've taken my basketball sneakers out of the closet. Another spring is upon us. Central Park was more packed than I've ever seen two weekends ago for the first 70 degree weekend of the year.

But that doesn't stop us from looking back at a very white winter, and one that was much more pleasant for my photography collection than for the rest of us.

The Central Park Arsenal

The Central Park Arsenal is the second oldest building in the park and one with a rich and varied history. It has been used as a munitions depot, a police precinct, a museum (that would later turn into the Natural History Museum), a weather bureau, a zoo, an art gallery, Robert Moses' command center, and currently the office of the parks commissioner. 

To view images of the building and the artwork and memorabilia on the inside, including the original blueprint for the park, please click here: The Central Park Arsenal.

I wish you all a very wonderful spring.

Sincerely,

James Maher
