And I’ve now just read the updates here; so how were the fireworks for #12?

I was not familiar with this fact.

Well done, Townie.

So have you gotten a room at the Ravel with #12 from the other thread yet?

I enjoyed my fourth of July … had dinner at Shi and then went to the West side to see the fireworks display!

I saw partly obstructed fireworks from a roof on UES

my friends in Bedstuy could see the whole thing from their roof… less to block it down there I guess though.

I was on the ground in Bushwick so had to settle for the local DIY fireworks. Oh well.

It was so nice this 4th in LIC without the crowds for the fireworks. The parties were great and the fireworks were better on the widescreen with outrown patriotic music playing. Wouldn’t mind it staying this way.

I got the feeling that a lot of people did not get the memo about the fireworks being on the Westside this year or like me thought that we were still going to get a glimpse of them. The fireworks were barely visible from the piers. I thought they would be able to clear the skyline but apparently they don’t go up that high. I was sitting in the new park waiting to catch a glimpse and decided to go up to my apartment where I was able to get a slightly better view of the fireworks.

What a great quiet weekend here. One of the best July 4th’s ever. I feel sorry for folks fromother neighborhoods that came here anyway.

Ideally #5, by someone way nicer than you.

Oh Townie. He seems to be full of whit and intellect and the ability to use it quite artfully. Not quite sure what getting laid has to do with it. What would I do without his repartee? I personally am looking forward to a lovely, quiet, 4th for a change! So to all out there…I hope your 4th is what you want it to be!

Townie needs to get laid. We all know that.

Oh Townie. I think you need some new friends. And a hobby or two.

I can’t see anything out my window except a bunch of towers, but they symbolize this great country, land of capitalist opportunity and political favoritism. Have a happy and safe Fourth.

I went into Matted. Underimpressed with their non-framing items- just looked like a pile of crap.

I noticed last week that I could see the fireworks from the Hudson from my 8th floor apartment. I think LIC will still have a view of fireworks.
