Welcome to Thursday Doors! This is a weekly challenge for people who love doors and architecture to come together to admire and share their favorite door photos, drawings, or other images or stories from around the world. If you’d like to join us, simply create your own Thursday Doors post each (or any) week and then share a link to your post in the comments below, anytime between 12:01 am Thursday morning and Saturday noon (North American eastern time). If you like, you can add our badge to your post.
The badge contest ended in a tie, so I will be alternating the badge I use here, but you are welcome to use either of the winning badges.
Sorry, there’s no bunny this week, but I do appreciate the message bearing bunnies of the past two weeks. I assure you they have been given carrots in exchange for their service.
I traveled a bit during my break—to Pittsburgh, as many would expect—but the break was extended to include the week before that trip because I had the opportunity to meet a friend for lunch in New York. Lunch? Do I live so close that I can run to NYC for lunch? Well, as David would hate to hear me say, yes and no.
I hadn’t seen this friend for a little over two years. He was visiting from the west coast, and we were able to find a common gap in our schedules. We met for lunch in the food court (well, at the bar in the food court—The Irish Exit) of the relatively new Moynihan Train Hall. All I had to do was hop on an Amtrak train, since that’s where those trains land in NYC. It was 97°f (36°c) in NYC and Connecticut that day, so sitting at a bar and catching up with a friend was the perfect thing to do—and I love riding the train.
Since I barely ventured out of the train hall, I don’t have a collection of NYC doors to share. That’s OK because we often have a few people posting doors from New York. What I have today are photos taken from the train.
The section of Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor between New Haven, CT and NYC is not its most scenic offering. The view isn’t often like that in the ad above This stretch is a bit grittier than the coastline and rural areas along other portions of the line. Still, I enjoy this ride, and I thought I’d share some of it with you today.
I also urge you to check out the doors and photos from the other participants—you might even see some New York City doors. I am back to my normal schedule, so there will be a Sunday Recap of today’s doors, in case you miss any linked below. The Recap will also include the posts from people who linked up under the bunny during the past two weeks.
