Waterside Park in Queens - a photo on Flickriver

            On Day 2 of World Wide KAP Week I went to Roosevelt Island but could not find reliable wind. Looking east from the southern tip of the island I saw flags flying. There was plenty of steady wind right across the river, 350 yards away, in Queens. I had been meaning to explore that area anyway, so I packed up and rode over. When I got there I found a brand new public park that was still under construction and closed to the public. It promises to be quite a sight for the local high rise buildings.
