The Yonkers waterfront has been transformed in the last several years with a lovely esplanade and sculpture garden at the southern end facing the Manhattan skyline.
Here in the garden are some whimsical sculptures:
Cloud Living Room - Barbara Segal 2003
Early American Dining Room- Alfredo Cardenas
Fish Loveseat - Lou Lalli 2003
Title and artist not known
Meditation Circle - Paul Greco
As you look north you can see the old Yonkers pier, home to the Water Taxi and X20 Restaurant

Even the Metropolitan Tranportation Authority commissioned art work on each side of the railroad trestle that leads to the river

The plaque is polished aluminum. The street scape is a reflection off the plaque. Not bad for a camera phone. Thanks for taking a walk with me along the Hudson River today. So I lied about the nudity. Someone in Yonkers is nude today, somewhere, just not here

Good luck this week!

Cap'n -- This was all industrial development in the 20th century. Otis Elevator had a factory on the waterfront until the mid 80s.
The view of the Manhattan skyline at night is humbling.
Surly -- Guilty of shameless self promotion.
Cartouche -- I thought you'd enjoy this being an artist. Nice to see some artists getting paid for their work.
Duaneart -- Pick a nice day so you can enjoy the views.
Owl -- It was delightful today. Sunny and breezy near 80.
Fab -- Thanks a lot.
John -- This section of Yonkers is new. The rest of Yonkers is as you remember it.
C.K. -- I recommend the restaurant on the Pier. The bathrooms have the best views in the world.

sweetfeet -- glad you enjoyed it.
Walt -- Glorious day is not overstating it. Warm and low humidity for September in New York. Nothing better.
Chuck -- It's always good to see park space used by the public. That these works of art were made to be used rather than being roped off and just looked at make all the difference in the world. The interactivity of these is what I find is really cool.
Denese -- Thanks for stopping by, these are unique but fun!
