I often find myself cutting through Madison Square Park when in New York City as it is on a convenient path to the Strand Bookstore, just a few blocks down from the park. Madison Square is a fun little New York Park that gets a lot of usage and many visitors. There are two dogs parks (one for small dogs and one for large) and food stands when the weather is nice. The buildings around it, including the Flatiron, (not shown in this shot), are given a bit of room to breathe and when the sun is low, as it was a few weeks ago on my last visit, the lighting is wonderful!!!
