Here is a day night photo I took. I thought it was interesting.
This is so simple and beautiful!
I took the photo through a hotel window.
Flew over it omw home, and I knew it was big, but still just insane how truly massive it is.
It’s 2.5 miles long by .5 miles wide.
What great foresight they had to create that space
It wasn’t that heroic. They intentionally did it to decimate new black land owners.
Wait, what?
Interesting… it says it was 40 acres. I wonder what was in the other 95% of that land at the time? Everything on Google just mentions Seneca Village.
Dang
Well that’s depressing
mmh broccoli
I just binged the show Central Park on Apple TV+. After seeing it animated in Loren Bouchard’s style for so many episodes, seeing this shot of it makes me realize how good of a job they did drawing the view of it from Bitsy’s high-rise.
Central Park is so iconic. It’s also amazing that it’s a man made feature. Olmsted and Vaux created it.
Is that show worth a watch? What other animated shows would you say it’s similar to?

How is he lost? He’s replying to a comment about a tv show?
For some reason my instance loaded their comment and ONLY their comment has a top level one and none of the other comments. 🫣
Ahhh fun stuff with Lemmy!
It’s a good time – in terms of character dynamics it’s very similar to other Loren Bouchard shows (Bob’s Burgers, The Great North). It’s a surprisingly good musical most of the time too with a great cast. You’ll hear some hints of homages but the music is made up of original songs and performed very well by the actors.
If you liked Hamilton then it’s definitely worth at least checking out since the lead character is played by Leslie Odom Jr. (Aaron Burr in Hamilton) and Daveed Diggs is a main character (Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson in Hamilton).
Basically if you enjoy Bob’s Burgers, Hamilton or musicals in general, then it’s worth taking a look at. Fair warning, most agree that it starts out incredibly rough and only starts getting good about halfway through the first episode. I’d been warned about it but still wasn’t prepared for how much of a slog it was to get through the first 12 minutes or so. But, as soon as the song Own It kicks in about halfway through, everything else starts to follow and it’s a good time from there. A nice show to have in your watchlist for times when you need something less than 30 minutes, a fun thing to zone out to or have had too long of a day to pay attention to that complex thriller drama you’re watching.
