Governor's Island has to be a hidden gem in the jungle of steel and concrete that I call home. I've taken the ferry with my bike to the island a few times, but we never visited the part I was able to preview yesterday. Who knew that there is a real and functioning high school. I certainly didn't have the option back in the day.
There are art exhibits sprinkled throughout the gardens. Old houses built almost a century ago which housed officers and their families. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go inside but I took lots and lots of beautiful pictures of the outside. Here they are!
