Treasure on the sidewalks of New York!

A few days ago, Peter and I discovered the Library Way plaques on our way to dinner in NYC.

The New York Public Library and the Grand Central Partnership have provided, since 1996, 96 shiny bronze plaques embedded in the sidewalk at East 41st St. between Fifth Ave. and Park Ave.

My favorite, so far, is:

Information is light. Information, in itself, is light.

Tom Stoppard, 1937- Night and Day
