Keeping it Fancy in Riverside Park

Even squirrels want a fun night out sometimes. Either the furry animals decided to get fancy and set up a treetop chandelier around 79th and Riverside Drive this week, or a human decided to turn a simple picnic into a five-star affair…

Reason #10,547 to look up in NYC.

“Is it an art installation or a practical joke?” asked Gayton Gomez, who sent the photographs and tip. Thanks, Gayton!

Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate.
