LANDED

LANDED

In the 'W' Hotel on Lexington Avenue. This afternoon I took the opportunity to visit Ground Zero and take the ferry ride to the Statue of Liberty, something I had planned to do on my last visit but never got around to doing. Great November weather, it’s actually quite warm.

New York always feels ‘easy’, for lack of a better word, things flow naturally (apart from the traffic). It reminds me of London and Hong Kong: large urban sprawls, overpopulated, but they feel good and they work. There are quite a few urban centers that somehow never have managed their size and growth. NY has. More later.

UPDATE: Andrew Leigh has an NRO piece on the media venture that is about to be launched here tomorrow.
