Ice skaters in Jackson Heights, 1939

I've seen this photo before; I think it might be in the Karatzas book.  It seemed a good time to bring it out again, with the weather we're having!

I love that photo!  In case anybody is wondering, it was taken at the "Jackson Heights Model Playground," now known as the Gorman Playground

The temps are supposed to dip way down this weekend.  Wouldn't it be nice if we still had a skating rink?  :'(
