On the Hackensack River Walkway by Costco

(1/2) > >>

BLeafe:
I go there once in a while - more for the photo variety than the walk, which is fairly short.

(Pic 1) The Hess tanks in Bogota - which will be gone soon - look nice reflected on the river. An air-polluting Interstate Waste Services truck (Pic 2) traveling on Costco's north side does not look nice.

There's a small variety of birds, including one that appears to be sprouting something from its posterior (Pic 3).

Pic 4 appears to show that rust is contagious.

There's a small pier on the other side of a fence that has an opening you could drive a truck through. A quick shot from there yields an image (Pic 5) that seems to show that HUMC is between the Bergen County Courthouse and the Church on the Green.

Once or twice before, I've see a feral orange tabby near the walkway around where Costco ends and the DPW begins. The cat is not interested in conversation or posing, so I never got a good shot of it.

Yesterday, I saw something bright and orange on the ground in the brush between the walkway and the river. Apparently, I disturbed the cat's sunning session. It sat up, gave me the evil eye as I took the picture, and then bolted.

Editor:
I really like the composition of the Hess tanks and the early-fall vegetation.  I feel like I've seen that tabby before. 

just watching:
Hess Oil tanks are coming down ! Good riddance to that industrial eye-sore.  What's going to be built there.

BLeafe:
Apartments.

BLeafe:
It's official. Instead of 8 acres (the old Sifford Pontiac site) along the river for residential redevelopment, it's now 13, after a deal was struck by the developer to buy the Hess tank farm.
