NYC'r here.
A thing I've done for many years in The Spring is visit the big pathway of Riverside Park (West edge of Manhattan ?135 St - 72nd St - Westside Highway next to it). I stroll, and sit on the benches a few blocks below the 72nd St entrance when the crabapple, and cherry trees are blossoming! So, so beautiful.
.
So I'm ready to do my walk, but am blocked off ftom the main path. Wth. Oh, there's a movie being filmed. I see the food catered carts.
.
Well, a year or so later I'm in the movie theater, and there's the characters walking though that section; trees all in bloom. Aha!
