What! You haven't heard that the E. 78th Street Bridge to the East River Esplanade has re-opened? Well!
One of the happiest of locals residents was Loretto Ponticello, here seen (in the light brown coat) applauding herself as she completed the walk over to the riverside. Looking at her, and applauding too, is Janette Sadik-Khan, the Department of Transportation Commissioner. It was a glorious Friday morning, that January 20, 2012, and many others were there to celebrate:
This dog, all 206 pounds of him, waited patiently for the ceremonies to begin.
Then, there were others, somewhat smaller, who also waited respectfully.
But perhaps the most remarkable of the canines who awaited the grand re-opening was this one! Our local "balloon dog," whom
I've seen occasionally, though not often, in the neighborhood. He was definitely the right choice for today!
So, it's still winter now - but the New York Giants have finally finished their season with another win over the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl! Spring can't be long now, right?!

Put your "two cents" in! From time to time The Street Teacher publishes
The Talk of New York, our blog in which I relate our discoveries in the City as we walk and travel throughout its streets and avenues - and alleys and riversides. I hope you click on it and subscribe - and contribute. Yes! You can make a difference! I think your contributions to the offerings here at The Street Teacher will make you more a part of us - and all of us together a boost to New York.
Remember, if you're out and about and happen to forget your Street Teacher website, just check out Thumbtack - you'll find him there.
