Cherry Blossom Festival! Crowded!
The Gowanus Lounge has conflicting feelings while looking at the cherry blossoms:
Gowanus Lounge went to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden's 25th Annual Cherry Blossom Festival on Saturday and fought off the tens of thousands of nature-deprived New Yorkers and manic photogs crowding around the trees and mobbing the tent on the Esplanade to take in the dozens of performances. (Tried to overlook the fact that Forest City Ratner, builder of Frank Gehry designed apartment towers over the Atlantic Yards with token arena thrown in as a Trojan horse for super-dense residential and commerical development, is one of the corporate sponsors.)
