MOMA!

 We had the opportunity to visit MOMA, and explore the art there for the day. In the morning, like many of thee other places we have explored, we reserved a time slot to visit. While neither of us are frequent museum goers, we would both agree that MOMA actually did seem fairly crowded compared to how we thought it would be. We spoke to someone working inside who explained how business is picking up and that they can have larger capacities of people visiting as the mayor allows it while cover rates stay very low in NYC. One room that we made sure to visit was the one that holds the Starry Night painting. This room was very crowded, while others with less well known art had no one in them.There did not seem to be limits on capacity per room. 

When we got to MOMA, we started on the top floor, and worked our way down. We didn't spend too long in each room, but made sure to read the artist statements of our favorite works of art in each room. Our project is about noticing larger changes and also smaller changes, so we wanted to pay attention to detail during our visit.

We came to the conclusion that NYC's people did not loose any interest in museums, especially MOMA.

The experience of eating at Sylvia's was one to remember and kept people coming back for more.       It was hard to imagine that a place like Sylvia's could ever close or be less busy than it was pre-covid and we were not let down when we turned the corner of 127th street and a line wrapped around the exterior of the restaurant. Groups of people waited outside fanning themselves, laughing, talking, as they waited to place their order. Indoor dining was not happening, only self-serve tables set up under a tarp that was ...
