Hudson River Greenway

Hudson River Greenway
Walked south on the Hudson River Greenway. The Charlottesville greenbelt is a very different walk. In Charlottesville the intersection of river and the land retains natural function plus native flora and fauna. There is communication going on between river and land. Loved walking the Hudson but the Rivanna has more to say.

General Henry Warner Slocum

sculpted by Frederick William MacMonnies
Lots of white guys on horses riding around the Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn. I didn’t notice any memorialization of slavery. In 1905, New York City unveiled the bronze statue of General Slocum with President Theodore Roosevelt as the keynote speaker. Slocum’s horse displays the raised front leg, a symbol of victory.
