Crossing the Pond
June 29th, 2009
We’re in New York this weekend seeing our son’s prospective in-laws and helping with the wedding preparations. It’s always good to see what’s going on here, but there’s a particular interest for The Larches, because probably the most famous and well frequented belvedere in the world is in the city’s Central Park.
The Belvedere Castle stands beside the Turtle pond and there are already two great photos of it and other information on this lakelandbelvedere website. It’s nice though to find it and be able to pinpoint it on the ground – as the photo opposite shows! For the record it stands at an altitude of only 17 metres; the lakeland belvedere is at 113 metres.
Got something to say?
