Tired and overwhelmed is a humble narrator, who is out taking pictures of the greatest city in the history of mankind this week and not attending any Zoom meetings or frankly doing anything he doesn’t want to do. Thereby, this week you’ll be encountering single images here at Newtown Pentacle, in pursuance of taking a short break from the normal blather.

Pictured above is the Global Marine Terminal at Port Elizabeth Newark, as seen from the Bayonne Bridge. 100 years ago today, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey officially opened its doors for business.

Pictured above is one of my favorite Newtown Creek points of view, depicting the Empire State Building peeking through the works and stacks of a biofuel refinery adjoining the Greenpoint Avenue Bridge.
