In New York on a visit to the marvelous Library of the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center, it’s been a five-day, non-stop hurricane watch.
No hurricane could possibly be as harrowing as the run-up to Hurricane Irene, which has succeeded in making a nervous wreck out of an entire city. And one visiting dance critic from Los Angeles.
Glancing out my window at 63rd & Broadway, a fearsome fantasy: Irene barreling down the Great White Way, toward my hotel.

Hey, I worked for 12 years at a restaurant at 65th & Bway! I’m told it’s now a parking lot, but still and always lots to watch on the street
Glad to hear the blast has diminished, but lots of interesting photo–yours included–and descriptions of the anticipation. Stay dry(?)!
