east of the lower east side: an urban oasis

this morning i took the L train then transfered to a bus which dropped me right outside the ELES library. took me about 45 minutes. not bad. one day i might actually ride my bike here, which would take about half the time but it would involve crossing a steep bridge and me possibly breaking a sweat. but anyway, it's nice here. it's quiet and peaceful and i just helped a mom find information on wildlife in australia using one of our DATABASES. can you say DATABASES?
