I took a long walk with Othello last night through our great new neighborhood of Jersey City Heights. What I absolutely love about this place is the diversity - there is an abundance of different kinds of architecture and residents from all over the world.
Here are some highlights:

Holly, it was so enjoyable to read this entry and to see all the great photos. How did you ever get Othello to stand or sit quietly while you used the camera? Your appreciation of so many things-- both big and small--in your new neighborhood made me very happy.
Holly, I wrote a comment before this one, but it didn't register at the bottom of your entry. What could be happening?
It was tough getting Othello to stand still! I'm still not really sure how I did it. I tried several times, and then I finally got a good shot.
Awesome photos! I featured this post on my blog, hope you don't mind.
Say hi to Othello for me. :P
Great pictures! Isn't Ogden Avenue beautiful? Oh, and welcome to Jersey City. A great online resource for your new home: http://www.wiredjc.com
