Welcome to Long Island City

It's been a year in LIC and progress has been slow at Hunter's Point.  While Amy and I have settled into the Gantry, we still await some of life's simple comforts.  External construction has finished for many of the new buildings in our immediate area, though I was still awoken by a 7 AM jack hammer below my window the other day.  At least the cement mixer is gone.

I will use this blog to update friends and family on our life in Long Island City.  2007 was a big year for Amy and I.  We closed on our apartment, got married and had half-a-year of firsts as a married couple (Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.).  I wish I had started this earlier, but it was a busy year.  Hopefully I'll do better in 2008 staying in touch.
