Queensboro Bridge was my means of commute this morning.

Last night, I decided to walk to work - it seemed like a logical idea - the forecast showed a reasonable temperature and I've been meaning to walk on bridges for some time.

So armed with a good walking shoes, warm enough coat, and one hour of music (U2, Death Cab for Cutie, Linkin Park) as well as the noise-cancelling headphone (a must! think of all that traffic on the bridge), I started off on my exactly 3 mile walk to work.

8:07 AM - Left the Apt door and walked to the bridge, along the Northern Blvd. Approaching the bridge, I saw this whacked sign but oh-so-NY:

8:30 AM - I now approached the entrance to the pedestrian way at the Queensboro Bridge

It looked SO FAR OFF....
Almost at the top!
Now, finally going down...
8:55 AM - I touched down to the end of the bridge and took this photo, facing Roosevelt Island/Queens:
9:07 AM - arrived at my desk @ work.

Next bridge: either Brooklyn or Williamsburg!
