Pictures of your City

[Eli]

Inspired by the Skyscrapers thread.

Attached is a pic of my "neighborhood". I live in the building that has the red arrow on it.

(Edit : The city is Ashdod, 40km southern of Tel Aviv, Israel)

[Solver]

Cool, I will now know which building I want to visit .

Given that I live in NYC, I will post neighborhood pics:

Local Park: Once Fort Washington, site of the Rebels worst defeat, renemaed for the last British Givernor of New York:



Looking at the George Washington Bridge:



Northern Manhattan:



The reason tourist come up this way: the Cloisters. Parts of three different monestaries in Europe make up this building, which houses a small part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Medeival collection:



Another cloisters shot:

Trajanus: no this is not Tel Aviv. this is Ashdod, some 40 (?) kms to the south. It also has great developement potential, since it's on a flat plain near the sea. ( unlike my city ).

I live in Ashdod.

Tel Aviv is an ugly, brown, unplanned, crowded city.

Ashdod is a beautiful, white and blue, spacious city.

My street, 187th. I live further east from this:



The street I live on is called Overlook, and this photo shows you why (taken from the next street over, Bennet)



Local Subway entrance:




A local playground outside the Park:



The main shopping street, 181st:





Tallest natural point in Manhattan! (the guy, not me is standing on it). [ sorry to say, I took none of these pics...



A local Synagoge (the neigborhood has a large Jewish precense, also increasingly a Russian one..)

Knoxville, TN. Love the greenery!

Eli: . That's because it's population is SLIGHTLY larger than yours.



Anyway, it's time to use my secret weapon! This is the beautiful Shrine of the Bahaii Religion. ph33r!
