These are from my first trip to New York this past year. I also was able to hit Chambersburg, Pa., Allentown, and Hoboken.

Chambersburg.

Allentown.

Newark.

Hoboken.

New York City.

Back in Jersey.

I love that Brooklyn density.

Also I'd like to see more of Hoboken! I had no idea it was a full fledged city.

It's really not. It's more like one super urban neighborhood. I believe it's only about one square mile, but there is a whole lot packed into that mile.

Is there anything that New York lacks (besides space)?

I'm speechless. Brooklyn and NYC kick ass. Great tour.

That's Sylvan Terrace. It's located just off of 161st St. Apparently there were once many rows like this. The pair on this street are the only ones left.

^ Cool, thanks for the additional info. I would loved to have seen blocks & blocks of those rascals.

this is a pretty great view, do you remember where this was at exactly?

(thanks in advance)

I took that pic in Queens, near the Queensboro Bridge.

Hoboken is my favorite city in New Jersey. My friend used to live there.
