Always amazing installations - great bookstore 

I probably frequent here twice a week, because I am obsessed with Mexican food, and I'm fortunate enough to live in close proximity to this place. Taqueria Tepango is definitely a sapphire in the rough since there are a lot of terrible/over-priced Mexican restaurants in NYC.

Designed by Frederick Law Olmstead (of Central Park), Prospect Park is where I go running in better weather and find an endless supply of flotsam and jetsam for casting in projects all year round. Thickets of trees, hidden paths, and rolling hills are an endless source of inspiration.

Empty, but not abandoned, this cavernous Brooklyn loading dock was once considered the largest individual building in the world.

The beauty of the light on the water, with a full view of the changing skyline, always awe inspiring.
