I'm quickly learning that there is no shortage of perfectly lovely parks in this city. Each one I visit is different and beautiful. I think they're my favorite part of New York. This park's most famous feature is the Washington Square Arch.
I remember visiting here with my parents the first time I came to NY, and I remember I loved the buildings on the north side. I thought it would be so delightful to live in one of those red brick buildings with the perfect stoops and clean white doors.
What I didn't remember was that there's this huge, gorgeous fountain right behind the arch, and lots of garden areas with a wide variety of flowers. (In the mid-day heat, I really had to fight the urge to jump in the fountain with the little kids.) I decided today that I love this park. It's definitely one of my favorites.
