Hank, forgive me but is this mapped correctly? The statue is perpendicular to the shoreline, if it was where it is on the map you would have to look to the right. Maybe this is from the pier?

Thanks Juan. you're absolutely right. I went back to the folder to check, and I had been to an art show at the new pier gallery on Van Brunt Street. I know I walked from there to where I took this picture, but from the aerial photo I cannot tell for sure where there was a bench in June of 2000 when I took it.

Also, as you point out, if you look carefully you see the right side of the Statue which would place me further north, in this area, when I took it.

Good detective work.

Cheers,

Hank

Glad I could help, I know now for next time that this is a much better view than from Battery Park.
