Spring always inspires me to take advantage of what New York City has to offer. Cabin fever prompts an adventurous spirit. Last week it was the cherry blossoms, this week I toured The New York Public Library. The Schwarzman Building, at 5th Avenue and 42nd Street, is the epitome of decadence coupled with a sense of democratic welcome. Many were taking advantage of the weather and scenery by hanging on the stoop. I took one of the Library's public tours with Catherine Ortiz, a French woman with enough sass for the entire group.
