The Met Cloisters is at the northern end of Manhattan in Fort Tryon Park at 99 Margaret Corbin Drive and is run by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
When I was an Urban Park Ranger many years ago I reenacted Maggie Corbin’s story in the revolutionary war. Read the story on Wikipedia.
Love any outside hall (is there a specific word for it?) with arches! Beautiful rustic doors. Missed you a couple of weeks. Hope you’re doing well?
Yes, a covered walk in a convent, monastery, college, or cathedral, typically with a wall on one side and a colonnade open to a quadrangle on the other. I am having some health issues involving nerves and joints which prevent me from enjoying getting around. The museum was a place I could borrow a wheel chair. Right now it is so hot in NYC I don’t want to go out. Thanks for asking.
Oh I love it there so much.
😍 Me too
Nice shots Sherry. That is such a beautiful place I do hope I get the chance to go back there at some point.
Hope you do. I love it the place. Thanks Norm.
Gorgeous courtyard and doors. I’ve never heard of an Urban Park Ranger. That must have been a fun and interesting job.
Federal Park Rangers have more to do. Urban ones mostly do tours and PR. The uniform is similar.
Very cool. I like it when I learn something new. 🙂
Last photo especially lovely! I’ll take it! 🙂
Thanks BB.
