Carriage houses!

You know what's great about living in NYC? You can be walking along minding your own business and suddenly look down a block you've never looked down before and see an entire row of restored, turn-of-the-century carriage houses.


I felt like I'd accidentally wandered onto the Universal Studios backlot.


I started taking pictures with my cell phone, fearing that if I came back tomorrow I'd find only Starbucks and Duane Reades.


Then I thought, you know what would look really cool in the vacant lot at the end of our block?



Add it to my post-lottery to-do list.
